Donor Series | Community Foundation of Central Georgia

Thank you to the Community Foundation of Central Georgia and the Lynn and Alan Neal Foundation Fund for selecting FCCCG as a 2026 High Five Grant recipient! Your generosity helps us bring counseling and essential mental health resources to children at Campus Clubs, Inc..

Special thanks to Miracle Bland, creator of ABC Affirm With Me, for supporting children’s emotional growth, and to Campus Clubs for trusting our vision and partnering with us to make care more accessible.

Through its High Five program, the Community Foundation of Central Georgia connects donors with tangible needs at local nonprofits, turning generosity into meaningful community impact.

With this $500 grant, FCCCG provided essential resources for children receiving on-site counseling at Campus Clubs, including:

💚A table to create a welcoming space for counseling
💚Art and coloring kits for creative expression
💚Workbooks and activity books to encourage emotional awareness and positive self-expression

But the impact goes beyond the supplies.

One 9-year-old client came to counseling struggling with anger that affected his life at school and at home. Through counseling, he learned to recognize when he was becoming upset and respond in healthier ways. His mother has since noticed positive changes in his behavior at home.

By bringing counseling directly to Campus Clubs, FCCCG helps children access support in a familiar setting while reducing barriers such as transportation and parents’ work schedules.

We’re grateful for the community partners and donors who believe in our vision. Your support inspires us to grow our impact, strengthen our services, and help more children and families thrive.

𝑯𝒆𝒍𝒑 𝒖𝒔 𝒑𝒖𝒕 𝒄𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒐𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒕𝒂𝒃𝒍𝒆

This week, Better Together Circles created by Deirtre Cotton, a support group for mothers who have lost a child will be happening.

We’re calling on individuals, local restaurants, churches, businesses, and community members to help provide warm meals for participating mothers and their children as the program grows to serve 18 mothers and their families.

One warm meal reminds a grieving mother that someone still cares—and that her child is not forgotten.

When we care for mothers, we care for families. When families are supported, children have a stronger foundation to grow. And when a community comes together to nurture the people who nurture the next generation, we help build a healthier, more compassionate society.

So, Macon. Give what you can. Every meal contribution helps create a little more comfort around the table.
