Activating good in and around Cobb County
"Ilde and I continue to be impressed by the role Cobb Community Foundation plays in our community. It doesn't just help people give—it brings people together around the issues that matter most. That kind of leadership is important to Cobb County's future, which is why we're proud to invest in its future through the Catalyst Society."
