Compassionate Atlanta

Compassionate Atlanta is a grassroots community building nonprofit rooted in the belief that compassion is the thread that weaves communities towards equitable health outcomes. By fostering deeper human connection across Georgia, CA encourages individuals, organizations, and institutions to lead with wise, compassionate action in all they do.

Serving as the connective tissue for more than 200 partners—including nonprofits, schools, municipalities, businesses, and healthcare systems—CA works collaboratively to cultivate a culture where everyone feels seen, valued, and supported. Through compassion education, cross-sector collaboration, and civic engagement, CA promotes compassion as both a core value, a daily practice and a community ethic.

Why Compassion Matters — and Why Your Support Fuels Real Change

Compassion isn’t soft. It’s powerful. It’s the spark that helps communities survive hardship and the force that helps them grow stronger, healthier, and more connected. Compassion is what happens when we:

1. Notice someone’s struggle,
2. Feel genuine care, and
3. Take meaningful action to help.

At Compassionate Atlanta, this is the work your support makes possible every day. You help us teach compassion as a skill, coach community leaders, build bridges across differences, and transform the systems that shape daily life such as schools, healthcare, neighborhoods, and more.

What Compassion Makes Possible — With Your Help

When you invest in compassion, you’re investing in measurable, community-wide impact:

• People gain tools to address conflict, stress, and stigma with courage and care.
• Families and neighbors feel safer and more connected.
• Youth learn leadership rooted in empathy and justice.
• Communities build programs that reduce isolation, improve mental and physical health, and expand opportunity.
• Systems shift—slowly, steadily—toward equity and belonging for everyone.

Your giving helps us turn compassion from a feeling into a movement.

Compassion Changes Everything

When compassion grows, so does hope. So does safety. So does belonging. And the ripple reaches far beyond one moment or one person—it reshapes the culture of an entire community.

Your gift keeps that ripple going. Your gift strengthens the work of connection, healing, and justice in Greater Atlanta and across Georgia. Your gift says, “Everybody deserves to thrive.”

And together, we make that real.
