Donations
The Lumpkin Coalition is a 100% volunteer 501(c)3 charitable organization with no paid officers or staff. We are entirely dependent on sponsorships, donations, and fundraising events to be able to pursue our mission. All contributions -- whether in the form of funds, materials, or services -- are fully tax-deductible.
All donations will be used to help us to continue to raise public awareness of the Hemlock problem and promote action; provide ongoing support for the efforts of all three labs in Georgia that raise predatory beetles to combat the HWA on public land; assist private land owners and public agencies in managing the health of their Hemlock trees; and facilitate other projects that benefit north Georgia, Lumpkin County, its residents and visitors.
Please consider helping us now to support this worthy cause. See below for:

Volunteer Opportunities
One of the best gifts ever is to give of yourself, and HemlockFest has lots of great opportunities to do that. For a list of the kinds of activities required to put the festival, please visit the HemlockFest Volunteers page. We always greatly appreciate all the volunteers' help and couldn't do HemlockFest without you. Plus, you'll have a super-good time, get a free ticket, and meet some other wonderful people -- we promise!
