Atlanta, GA (December 17, 2025) |
On Wednesday, Dec. 10, the LGE Community Outreach Foundation presented $389,598 to local nonprofit organizations at LGE Community Credit Union’s annual celebration breakfast. This year’s donations brought the LGE Foundation’s lifetime giving total to over $3 million, marking an impactful milestone in LGE’s commitment to the metro Atlanta and northwest Georgia communities.
The event recognized nonprofit organizations the LGE Foundation supported in 2025, and each organization was invited to speak and share donor impact stories with the credit union’s approximately 340 employees.
Nonprofits that received donations from the LGE Foundation included Calvary Children’s Home, CASA of Paulding County, Drake House, McKenna Farms, MUST Ministries, Next Step Ministries, Safe Path, Sexual Assault Center of Northwest Georgia, United Military Care and Warehouse of Hope.
“Our mission goes beyond financial services; it’s about improving lives,” said Chris Leggett, president and CEO of LGE Community Credit Union. “This milestone shows that when we work together, we can create lasting change for the communities we serve.”
Annually, the LGE Foundation leads a fundraising campaign with the goal of helping give back to the communities LGE serves. Proceeds raised from events, as well as personal contributions given throughout the year, are matched up to an annual maximum by LGE Community Credit Union and donated to local nonprofit organizations, families, or individuals in need.
