On AUGUST 16, 2024 the Communities of Coastal Georgia Foundation (CCGF) proudly announced Under One Roof, a philanthropic initiative dedicated to helping those who have lost their homes due to an unexpected life change or catastrophic event, such as a fire, flood, or if their home becomes otherwise unsafe for habitation. As a fund of CCGF, the goal of Under One Roof is to manage donations and allocate funds to local non-profits, ensuring effective support for those facing housing insecurity; particularly those who are disproportionately underserved–including women and children. This ambitious initiative is the product of hundreds of community members coming together to voice their support for real change throughout the Golden Isles.
