Financial Assistance
Through the Community Foundation of West Georgia and several community sponsors and partners, an online referral database has been built that covers CARROLL, HARALSON & HEARD Counties. Many families request financial assistance, especially during the holiday season and cold weather. In addition, many people may be unable to pay their bills because of some other life situation. To search for the services that these families may be asking for or if your organization would like to partner with this foundation, please visit the following website:
