About

For more than 80 years, the Vinson Institute has worked with public officials throughout Georgia and around the world to improve governance and people's lives. From Georgia's early days as a largely agrarian state with a modest population to its modern-day status as a national and international force in business, industry, and politics with a population of almost 10 million, the Institute has helped government leaders navigate change and forge strong directions for a better Georgia.

Setting the Standard for Excellence in Public Service

For 80 years, the Vinson Institute has been serving state and local governments. State funding has made our work possible. In recent years, however, that funding has declined, and we must now look to other sources to help ensure the breadth and quality of our programs. You can help. You have relied on the Institute in the past. Your generosity now will help us design a future that will meet your needs even better.

Here are some of the programs your gift will help support:

Local Government Programs
Vinson Institute Undergraduate Student Fellows Program
International Center 		Local Government Training Scholarships
Graduate Research Assistantship Support Fund
James Kundell Environmental Policy Program
 

Please show your commitment to the work of the Vinson Institute by giving to the UGA Foundation now. You can indicate your gift by completing and returning a Commitment Form provided for that purpose.

Thank you for continuing to support the Vinson Institute.
