Established in 1951, the Community Foundation for Greater Atlanta focuses on improving quality of life in the 23-county Atlanta metro area. It holds $900 million in assets and disburses about $100 million in grants annually. As part of its Atlanta Wealth Building Initiative, the foundation is supporting the creation of BetterLife Growers, an aeroponic operation that will sell fresh lettuce and herbs to area anchor institutions and other local establishments. The enterprise is expected to create around 25 living-wage jobs in the Mechanicsville community.
