What is it and how does it work?
The employees of Georgia Power and Southern Company have been generously donating to Health and Human Service organizations for over 50 years through an employee giving program titled Club of Hearts, Inc. The Club of Hearts is a Georgia nonprofit corporation, which has been encorporated since 1953, and includes employees and retirees of Georgia Power and Southern Company Services who work and live, respectfully, in the metro Atlanta area.
The Club of Hearts is "operated exclusively for charitable purposes, and seeks no monetary gain or profit. Every dollar pledged goes directly to the agency(ies) of their choice." The Board of Trustees solicits contributions from employees and retirees and manages the distribution of contributions to the giver's choice organization(s). Georgia Power and Southern Company Services employees and retirees have contributed more than $954,000 to agencies and initiatives through the Club of Hearts since their creation!!!
They generously serve 13 counties in metro Atlanta, which include: Butts, Cherokee, Clayton, Cobb, Coweta, DeKalb, Douglas, Fayette, Fulton, Gwinnett, Henry, Paulding and Rockdale.
Reconnecting Families and Club of Hearts:
Reconnecting Families has been a participant with the Club of Hearts for two years now. We were invited to attend the Club of Hearts' Annual Agency Awareness Day yesterday, which was very exciting!!
We were not only given the opportunity to network with many other amazing nonprofit organizations of metro Atlanta, but also able to advocate the Reconnecting Families' mission and successes to the wonderful employees of Georgia Power and Southern Company Services.
We would like to recognize the Georgia Power and Southern Company emplyees and retirees and the Club of Hearts for all the generous help they give to nonprofits and community members of metro Atlanta. It is heart-warming to see such generous people so willing to give back to their community.
Thank you again Georia Power for hosting such a wonderful event! We are deeply honored to be assiciated with Club of Hearts!!
Also, a special thanks to Stephanie for attending as a spokesperson for the success of Reconnecting Families! We loved having you there with us!!
