A Catalyst for Positive Change
Georgia is known for its historic cities like Savannah, major urban centers like Atlanta, and Southern charm. However, behind the charming nature lies a lesser-known fact:
31% of households are "ALICE" (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed), which, when added to those in poverty, means 45% of Georgia households face financial hardship.
