CCBG Foundation


Building communities by enhancing quality of life

The Capital City Bank Group Foundation is a non-profit organization designed to invest in those initiatives we believe contribute to building a strong community. The mission of the Foundation is to enhance the quality of life in the communities where we do business.

The Capital City Bank Group Foundation provides grants to non-profit, charitable organizations and institutions exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Foundation only provides funds to organizations in communities where we do business. A Board of Directors manages the Foundation, and a committee of Capital City directors and associates reviews requests for funds.

Under existing guidelines, the Foundation does not consider requests of the following nature:
  • advertising
  • association memberships
  • athletic team or athletic event sponsorships
  • fundraising event sponsorships
  • tickets to attend community functions and fundraisers
  • professional telephone sales solicitations
  • those with religious or political affiliations
  • those located out of our market area

Grant applications are reviewed once per year. Requests for funding must be received via online application by 11:59 p.m. on April 1. Organizations requesting funds will be notified of the decision in writing within 30 days of the Grant Committee meeting.

To be considered complete, your application must include a copy of your organization’s official IRS 501(c)(3) document. Applications will only be accepted via the online submission database — printed copies, e-mails and other formats will not be accepted.
