To bridge the gap between the community and its leadership.
Our mission is to promote and ensure economic growth, community outreach, and mentorship within the Augusta/CSRA community.
The goal of Band of Brothers is to identify specific, unmet needs in our community and work with community organizations and leaders to fill them. We rely on volunteers, donors, and other partners to provide financial, time, skills, and resource-based support to help advance our cause.
Investing in our organization fuels its growth, sustainability and gives power back to the community. Long-term support is crucial to deliver the systemic change needed to ensure a lasting impact in the Augusta community, which will amplify the community's resilience and strength while catalyzing growth and opportunity. Band of Brothers Augusta, Inc. exists to enhance the options available to the people throughout the Augusta/CSRA region.

Through our Break Bread Project, we are able to feed more than 800 of the less fortunate throughout the city of Augusta each year. We also partner with the Ronald McDonald House to provide meals to families living there due to their critically ill child being cared for at the Children’s Hospital of Georgia. We feed approximately 125 families per year.
Through our Good Neighbor Initiative, we have been able to collect and remove over 1,500 pounds of trash from over 6.2 square miles of roads in Augusta, GA this year (2,300 lbs., 9.6 sq. mi in 2023). We have also assisted over 23 elderly or disabled people with lawn care and/or minor home repairs totaling over $5800 this year.
The Juneteenth Augusta Festival has been more than just a celebration. Attendance for the Juneteenth Augusta Festival continues to growth each year with an 8% increase since 2022.
