Marietta, Georgia (Cobb County)
We have an unexpected opportunity to make a significant impact.
The 6-4-3 Foundation was started in 2013 to simply do good deeds and make a difference in our community. As a small non-profit organization, we have donated to local charities, facilitated service projects, and impacted children and families in need both inside the 6-4-3 organization and in the surrounding community. Now we have an unexpected opportunity to make a timely and positive impact in a time of great need.
With the Coronavirus pandemic causing havoc and distress in our nation and in the State of Georgia, there are vulnerable populations of Americans/Georgians facing serious challenges. For many, there is worry about adequate healthcare and safety, employment, financial security and/or food scarcity. Fortunate to be in a position to help, today The 6-4-3 Foundation is launching its COVID-19 Response Fund to direct needed resources to important causes in Marietta and the Greater Atlanta area.
The 6-4-3 Foundation COVID-19 Response Fund will support five (5) local initiatives and non-profits doing important work in areas of need made more challenging due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The five initiatives/non-profits working with at-risk and disadvantaged populations in our city and state are as follows:

Sweetwater Mission – providing food and clothing assistance to low-income residents of Cobb, Douglas and Paulding counties
Marietta City Schools - providing delivered meals to students in need and erasing school lunch debt for struggling families (
