Capital Campaign
 
Critical to the Atlanta BeltLine's early success is a significant commitment of private charitable dollars to fund greenspace acquisition and development and trail construction. Private support of the BeltLine will ensure that Atlanta can take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. 
 
The Atlanta BeltLine Partnership kicked off a $60 million capital campaign in 2007 to underwrite the early development of key parks and trail segments along the BeltLine and demonstrate this project’s potential to transform Atlanta.  Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed serves as Honorary Chair, and the campaign is co-chaired by a stellar group of Atlanta leaders:
    • Jim Kennedy, Chairman of Cox Enterprises, Inc.
    • Phil Kent, Chairman and CEO of Turner Broadcasting System, Inc.
    • Herman Russell, Chairman of H. J. Russell and Company
    • Ray Weeks, Chairman of Weeks Robinson Properties.  
     

The campaign is experiencing tremendous success.  With Mayor Reed and the committed volunteer leadership committee at the helm, the Atlanta BeltLine Partnership has raised more than $35.7 million towards the goal from more than 100 donors, including lead gifts from many of Atlanta’s largest foundations and corporations. 

Lead donors include:

  • Robert W. Woodruff Foundation
  • Arthur M. Blank Family Foundation
  • The James M. Cox Foundation (Cox Enterprises, Inc.)
  • Kaiser Permanente
  • Sarah and Jim Kennedy/PATH Foundation
  • The Coca-Cola Company
  • The Home Depot Foundation

  • Mr. John C. Portman, Jr.
  • SunTrust Foundation and SunTrust Bank Trusteed Foundation -
