Learn More About Our Economic Mobility Summit

Atlanta ranks last among the 50 largest U.S. cities for economic mobility. In order to better understand why, and what we as a city can do about it, the foundation convened a group of local leaders at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Jan. 13 and invited Harvard researcher Raj Chetty to share insights from his groundbreaking work.

At the convening, the foundation announced a partnership with Blue Meridian Partners to expand economic mobility and opportunity in Georgia. As part of this collaboration, the foundation is investing $75 million in Blue Meridian to help support a five-year economic mobility initiative in Atlanta and other select communities in Georgia.

We believe Atlanta has the leadership, partnerships and heart to chart a different path forward.
