Georgia Gives Day

& your other favorite charities by
Georgia Gives Day is an initiative that has been co-created by the nonprofit sector itself. It doesn't support one cause or one locale - it's all of us in the state's nonprofit sector pulling together to ask you to stop and consider your life and your community without nonprofits. How much less connected, less vibrant, less interesting and less supported would our communities be without them?

"A residential customer [who] chooses to be environmentally conscious and attempt to reduce his or her electric bill...would be charged an additional monthly fee of $5.56 per kilowatt hour," said the PSC's renewable energy manager in a statement opposing the proposed tariff.  Read More Here
