Funding and Support

The New Georgia Encyclopedia (http://www.georgiaencyclopedia.org) was developed by the Georgia Humanities Council, in partnership with the University of Georgia Press, the University System of Georgia/GALILEO, and the Office of the Governor of Georgia.

Since 1998, we have led the planning and development efforts for this project. Funding for the NGE has been provided by public and private donors, including: the State of Georgia, the Robert W. Woodruff Foundation, the National Endowment for the Humanities, BellSouth, the Peyton Anderson Foundation, the Georgia Power Foundation, the University of Georgia, the James M. Cox Foundation, the UPS Foundation, and the Historic Chattahoochee Commission. We appreciate their support.

We also thank the Technical College System of Georgia, the Wachovia Foundation, the Watson-Brown Foundation, a Friend of the Georgia Humanities Council, the Tull Charitable Foundation, the Imlay Foundation, the Frances Wood Wilson Foundation, and the Katherine John Murphy Foundation.

We are grateful to the University System of Georgia/GALILEO for their significant in-kind contributions, and to the University of Georgia Press and the Office of the Governor for their ongoing partnership support.
