Since 1994, the PURPOSE of the Cobb Health Futures Foundation has been to provide financial, fundraising, and advocacy support for the MISSION of Cobb & Douglas Public Health, which is, “with our partners, to promote and protect the health and safety of the residents of Cobb and Douglas counties.”
Cobb & Douglas Public Health CANNOT protect the health and safety of its counties’ residents by relying solely on tax dollars.
Over 40%–or $12 million–of public health funds must come from private contributions made by individuals, businesses, and foundations.
The Cobb Health Futures Foundation board is strategic about where it can make the most impact programmatically and focuses its fundraising efforts accordingly.
