The Historic Macon Foundation is a well-run and effective non-profit, which has done a great job in revitalizing Macon neighborhoods and resurrecting historic properties.
Their frequent events are fun and well organized, and the Literary Salons bring noted authors to Macon.
I feel very comfortable making donations to Historic Macon since I know that the funds are wisely administered and the staff is conscientious.
