  • Mission

    We grow programs, partnerships, and resources that create and support a positive legacy for Decatur. Today, beyond its original bicentennial objective, the organization cultivates a broadly-defined, tangible legacy for future generations — reinforcing community values through partnerships and programs that support the City of Decatur, Georgia.

    About Us

    In 2015, our organization received its 501(c)(3) status as the Decatur Legacy Project to facilitate the planning, community engagement, and fundraising efforts associated with the city’s 2023 bicentennial celebrations. Operating now as Legacy Decatur, we’ve since broadened our mission and, with that, our focus.

    Today we work to cultivate a broadly-defined, tangible legacy for future generations - reinforcing community values through partnerships and programs that support the City of Decatur, Georgia. Specifically, those values comprise: creativity, transparency, inclusivity, affordability, diversity, equity, connection, collaboration, sustainability, and stewardship.
