Marietta Crowned “Most Generous City in America” by GoFundMe
According to GoFundMe, Marietta was highlighted for its generous people and causes.
Marietta, GA has “earned its place”.
GoFundMe, the crowdfunding platform that allows people to raise money for various causes such as celebrations or challenging circumstances, has determined that Marietta is the most generous city in America. “Marietta, GA, earned its place at the top of GoFundMe’s list because people came together and took action to make a difference in their community,” says the company, which has raised over $9 billion for people, causes, and organizations since its founding in 2010.
Leading by example.
Marietta made more donations per capita than any other city in the country with a population over 50,000, the report shows, despite the fact that Georgia didn’t even make the top 10 most generous states.
