Why Should You Donate to Circles Douglas County and How Do They Use the Money?

Based on 25 years of working with communities across America, Circles USA has developed one of the most effective programs to support people out of poverty. Circles also brings together community resources and helps formulate a plan to help reduce a community's poverty rate by at least 10%.  Circles is a non-partisan 501(c)(3) organization. 

Circles Douglas County was started by First Presbyterian Church of Douglasville (FPC) after a season of speaking with community leaders to determine how the church could work with the community to meet unmet needs in our county.

Circles Douglas County helps those who are struggling financially and want to improve their economic situation.  These are folks that might:

• Feel stuck
• Be constantly facing urgent problems
• Be tired of living paycheck-to-paycheck
• Want to improve themself and achieve their goals
• Want a better job
• Want to build healthy relationships

Circles helps families become financially stable with a unique approach. We match those in need with middle- or high-income volunteers. They receive training about personal finances, getting a job, and communication skills for healthy relationships. What really makes Circles different are the relationships that participants form. People are more successful when they have support around them.

For those wanting to make an even greater positive impact to our mission to help lift people out of poverty, we have several tiers of sponsorship.
