Empowering Communities, Transforming Lives.
Building a stronger future through education, entrepreneurship, and engagement.
“Change doesn’t happen to the community—it happens through the community.”
“Before the Mary Parker Foundation, I had the vision but no roadmap. Now I own a business, mentor youth, and believe in myself in a way I never thought possible.”

Who We Serve
While our outreach spans the city, our heart remains rooted in the neighborhoods surrounding us. At the Mary Parker Foundation, we intentionally focus our programs and resources within a 5-mile radius of our headquarters—because we believe meaningful change starts close to home.
We serve youth, families, aspiring entrepreneurs, and underserved individuals in Southwest Atlanta and nearby communities—many of whom face barriers to education, economic mobility, and wellness. By prioritizing the immediate neighborhoods around us, we ensure that our impact is deep, consistent, and personal.
Our goal isn’t just to show up—we aim to grow with the community, build trust over time, and become a reliable source of opportunity and empowerment right where it’s needed most.
