Confirmed in Compliance
with National Standards for
U.S. Community Foundations


We have a list of the most giving people in DeKalb County.

Do you know someone else who belongs on the list?

Every year, DeKalb County Community Foundation honors a few local people who have made our community a better place – people whose recent contributions of time and talent deserve special recognition. The Community Foundation celebrates the contributions made by Heart of Gold Award nominees and we love to hear their stories.
