Community Foundation of Central Georgia will announce the recipients of the Conversation to Action Mini-Grants which are designed to give seed funding to ideas inspired by On The Table Macon discussions. Join us on Wednesday, December 19, 2018 at 10:00 a.m. in the Cherry Blossom Suite on the 16th Floor of the Fickling Building (577 Mulberry Street – Downtown Macon). Conversation to Action Mini-Grants will fund 17 projects, totaling a $15,000 investment in community-driven ideas to transform Macon-Bibb County.
 
Conversation to Action Mini-Grants are an initial impact of On The Table Macon which was spearheaded by the Community Foundation of Central Georgia. CFCG was one of 10 community foundations across the U.S. participating in On The Table, a national initiative funded by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. Everyone who lives, works or plays in Macon-Bibb County was invited to participate in On The Table Macon. On October 17th, nearly 5,000 guests joined 600 tables in conversation.
 
“Through events like On The Table, CFCG continues to work to connect people, organizations, and the region to create a Central Georgia where philanthropy thrives, communities are strong and citizens work toward common goals.” said Kathryn Dennis, president of the Community Foundation of Central Georgia.
 
At the end of each On the Table conversation, all participants were invited complete a brief electronic survey about the themes of their conversations, their outlook on the community and what ideas they will take Beyond the Table. In January 2019, CFCG will publicly share these outcomes, including trends, common themes, and new collaborations developed to continue the momentum of moving Macon-Bibb County forward.
