    About Georgia-Pacific Foundation

    The Georgia‑Pacific Foundation appears to concentrate its philanthropy on funding scholarship programs rather than broad programmatic grants. Its giving is organized as a small number of high-dollar awards labeled as scholarships, suggesting support for student aid (likely both community and employee-related scholarships) rather than operating support for nonprofits. The foundation’s grantmaking is targeted and transactional rather than broadly diversified across causes.

    Focus Areas

    Scholarship funds and student aid (unspecified recipients)Employee/industry-related scholarship programsCommunity higher-education scholarships in Georgia/employee communities

    Who They Fund

    students (postsecondary/college-bound)individual learners seeking tuition support

    Giving Approach

    Highly concentrated: very few grants (2) totaling a single substantial amount; focused on scholarship disbursements rather than multiple small or unrestricted grants. Appears to fund via designated scholarship lists rather than many distinct grantee organizations.

    Funding Style

    direct financial aid

    About Georgia-Pacific Foundation

    Georgia-Pacific Foundation’s recent giving is dominated by scholarship awards, including a $325,000 grant in 2023 and a $228,020 grant in 2024 listed as “See Attached List of Scholarships.” That pattern points to a funder that channels most of its support through student aid rather than broad nonprofit operating grants. The foundation’s 2025 grants continue that approach with many individual scholarship awards, each tied to named students in places such as Atlanta, Athens, Auburn, Madison, and other U.S. college towns. The foundation’s grant record suggests a focus on postsecondary tuition assistance and educational access. Several awards in the 2025 list went to individual learners, with scholarship support reaching students in Georgia and beyond. Because the awards are structured as scholarships, the foundation’s philanthropy appears to be highly directed and transactional, with limited dispersion across non-education causes in the available data. Its giving also shows a strong connection to Georgia, where recipients are located throughout the recent grant list.

    What Georgia-Pacific Foundation Funds

    Educational access is the clearest throughline in the recent grants. In 2025, Georgia-Pacific Foundation gave $3,000 to Fisher Rebecca E for scholarship support and $3,000 to Hammann Taylor C for scholarship support, alongside numerous $2,000 awards to individual students. The foundation also supports scholarship aid across a wide set of student locations. Examples include $2,000 to Seals Floey B in South Orange, New Jersey, $2,000 to Petersen Kaitlyn M in Platteville, Wisconsin, and $2,000 to Davis Sydney Claire in Oxford, Mississippi, all labeled scholarship grants. Its Georgia ties are visible in the recipient list as well. The foundation gave $2,000 to Knudsen Kaden C in Atlanta and $2,000 to Price Bronson W in Athens, showing that scholarship support reaches students in the state where it gives most often. The grant purposes in the available data are consistent: scholarship funding for individual learners rather than organizational program grants.

    How Georgia-Pacific Foundation Gives

    The typical grant size is tightly clustered: p25 is $252,265, median is $276,510, and p75 is $300,755. That reflects a two-tier pattern in the record, with large scholarship-list grants in the hundreds of thousands and many smaller individual scholarship awards at $2,000 to $3,000. The foundation is classified as a Regular Funder and funds individuals, which matches the scholarship format seen in the grant list. The available data show repeated scholarship giving in multiple years, including 2023, 2024, and 2025, rather than a one-time award pattern.
