Core Community Augusta WHAT IS CORE COMMUNITY? Core Community is about healing lives, solving poverty, and empowering famil

Currently 13% of Augusta Families live at or below the poverty line. Core Community Augusta (formerly Bright Futures Families) is a relationship based initiative to help Augusta families walk out of poverty. As part of the CCA model, adults living in poverty become Core Leaders. Core Leaders set goals that will allow them to permanently increase their earned income. At our weekly meetings, childcare is provided, a meal is shared and Core Leaders receive training to work towards their goals with the committed friendship of volunteers we call Core Friends. Core Friends are people who are not experiencing poverty that commit to building a friendship with the Core Leader as they work their way out of poverty. CCA believes in the evidence that friendships are crucial for people to journey completely out of poverty. This model focuses on multi-generational poverty resolution and it strengthens communities in the process by bringing people together. Join us in helping Augusta families walk out of poverty and build a vibrant community.

It has been almost ten years since Core Community began! In that time 15 individuals/families have gotten out of poverty, with many more that have increased their income, gotten sober, joined a church, and are no longer feeling that everyday is a crisis to overcome. Everyone who has supported Core is a part of these stories. We hope to celebrate with you! Drop by on Sunday. Eat some BBQ. Listen to the testimonies. Your prayers and donations have made a difference!

The online auction is up until 1pm on Sunday. 9/20/26. https://bit.ly/4cDyF1Q
