12 Days of Christmas

Morris Bank - Dublin, GA

2023 Community Committment Awards Submission

  • Entry Category: Community and Economic Development
  • Asset Size: Small

The Morris Bank Community Foundation began an initiative in Dec. 2022 to do a "12 Days of Christmas" campaign. The Foundation board received grant applications and distributed 12 $2,000 grants (totaling $24,000) within the Morris Bank communities from Dec. 1-12, 2023. The recipients represent undeserved portions of the community and assist and support domestic violence victims, handicap individuals, low-income children and families, and more.

One winner was announced each day on social media, and we were able to impact so many deserving organizations and participants within the communities we serve:
