| WHY |
Assisting over 70,000 people each year to find the help they need, Community Connection is an umbrella agency overseeing three crucial services in Northeast Georgia:
Give Help: Connecting individuals in the 14 county area resources via the 2-1-1 Information and Referral Helpline which provides more than 30,000 referrals to individuals in need of services each year;
Get Help: Connecting thousands of interested citizens to volunteer opportunities in our community via the Hands On Northeast Georgia program;
Grow Help: Connecting organizations to resources (including each other) via the Non-Profit Development Alliance, which helps non-profit organizations receive the training, support and assistance they need, while ‘incubating’ new programs to fill gaps in services.
Help us to continue to serve the NEGA community. www.CommunityConnection211.org
