Thank you, GCCA, for helping us reach our 2023 GCCA Spring Conference GCCA Cares fundraising goal of $1,500, for the Ida Cason Callaway Foundation!

GCCA Cares is determined to give back to our community by supporting local charities while we are guests in the cities that host our conferences.

For the 2023 GCCA Spring Conference, we have chosen the Ida Cason Callaway Foundation.

Callaway Gardens is owned and operated by the non-profit, 501(c)3 Ida Cason Callaway Foundation to support the ongoing mission of Callaway Gardens.  From the Ida Cason Callaway Foundation website:

The Foundation depends on charitable gifts to continue its environmental mission of conservation, education, and land stewardship, as well as the sustainability and improvement of our Georgia botanical gardens. Our supporters’ generous tax-deductible donations help us:

• Conserve our gorgeous 2,500 acres of woodland gardens, as well as, the endangered plants & animals that live within it.
• Educate all ages through our world-class exhibits, workshops, internships & lecture series. Your donation also helps fund our 30K+ annual field trips & educational workshops throughout the year.
• Raise Awareness to wildlife conservation through initiatives such as our Adopt-A-Raptor program, which enables visitors to help support the feeding, training, housing, and medical care of our resident raptors.

Donors may give toward a specific need or give a general gift that will be used wherever it is most needed. In addition to special projects and specific equipment and supplies, funding is needed continually for daily operating expenses in the Gardens and its many attractions. Your financial support is one of many ways you can make a real difference in stewardship not only of Callaway Resort & Gardens, but of our precious planet. We can’t do it without you!
