PCBA Donates Thousands of Dollars to Community Programs

In the spirit of community engagement and philanthropy, the Peachtree Corners Business Association (PCBA) has been at the forefront of supporting local initiatives and charities within the greater metro Atlanta area.

Through the generosity of its members, sponsors and the wider community, the PCBA has made significant contributions to various organizations. Let’s take a closer look at three of the deserving recipients.

Rainbow Village

PCBA awarded a check for $4,500 at the October 2023 Business After Hours event to Rainbow Village.

This charity’s primary focus is to be change-makers who are moving the needle towards ending homelessness through educational, support-driven and compassionate programming that embraces unique paths and sustainable progress.

“The PCBA Outreach Committee and the Board were impressed with Rainbow Village and its mission to transform the lives of families experiencing homelessness by providing help, hope, housing, and healing in order to instill initiative, self-development and accountability,” said Lisa Proctor, PCBA’s President.

“We were proud to share the presentation of this check with our members and guests at our recent PCBA Business After Hour event in October, allowing everyone to celebrate in this milestone donation,” she added.

Good Samaritan

PCBA also awarded a check for $4,500 to Good Samaritan Health Center of Gwinnett at the November 2023 Business After Hours event.

Good Samaritan Health Centers of Gwinnett (Good Sam Gwinnett) is a nonprofit organization committed to caring for the uninsured and underinsured working poor in the community.

Good Sam’s primary focus is providing quality, affordable and accessible primary healthcare and dental services to the poor and underinsured at their two locations in Norcross.

“The PCBA Outreach Committee and Board are impressed with this worthy charity and its mission to help our community,” commented Proctor.

 “We were excited to present this check to Gregory Lang, Ph.D. Executive Director, and Greg Johnson, Director, at our recent PCBA Business After Hour Speaker event, so our members had the opportunity to celebrate with us and learn how this organization supports our community,” she explained.

Corners Outreach

PCBA awarded an additional check for $4,500 to Corners Outreach at the December 2023 Business After Hours Year-End Celebration event.

The mission of Corners Outreach is to equip metro Atlanta’s underserved students of color and their families to lead full lives through educational development and economic opportunities. 

Corners Outreach’s envisions one community where every person thrives, no matter their color, status or background.

“The PCBA is proud to donate a check for $4,500 to one of three charities we raised money for at our annual charity event this year. Our Outreach Committee and Board are impressed with Corners Outreach programs including Corners Academy, Workforce Development, Family engagement, and Corners Industry,” said Proctor.

“We are so proud that the PCBA can continue our commitment to supporting our community and charities like Corners Outreach, which continues to grow and expand to meet our community’s critical needs.”

Funds for the PCBA Community Outreach program are raised throughout the year from PCBA membership, sponsorship, and our annual charity event.

Through the end of December 2023, the PCBA has awarded over $151,100 and 17 scholarships back into the community.
