More than $2 million in grants has been awarded to nonprofit organizations across northwest Georgia and northeast Alabama through the Atrium Health Floyd-Polk Foundation’s 2026 Community Impact Grant program.

The grants will support projects focused on improving health, expanding access to care and addressing social determinants of health, including food insecurity, mental health, housing and transportation. The funding is part of the Foundation’s ongoing mission to invest in long-term solutions that improve the well-being of residents throughout the region.

According to Northwest Georgia News, the Foundation awarded grants to dozens of nonprofit organizations serving Floyd, Polk, Bartow, Gordon and Chattooga counties in Georgia, along with Cherokee County, Alabama. The Community Resource Center of Chattooga County was among the organizations receiving funding to support services provided to local residents.

Atrium Health Floyd-Polk Foundation President Dan Bevels said the goal is to support organizations that address the root causes of community challenges while strengthening partnerships throughout the region. Foundation leaders say they are focused on investing in projects that create lasting improvements in health and quality of life.

The Atrium Health Floyd-Polk Foundation was established in 2021 following the strategic combination of Floyd Health System and Atrium Health. Since its creation, the Foundation has awarded millions of dollars in grants, donations and sponsorships to improve health care access and community wellness across northwest Georgia and northeast Alabama.
