We’re excited to share that Georgia Appleseed has received a grant from the OpenAI Foundation’s 2026 People-First AI Fund.

Georgia Appleseed has been exploring how AI can help close information and access gaps for the communities we serve. From developing Seedmore, our AI-powered tool that helps families navigate school-related questions, to exploring how AI can make complex legal information easier to understand and use, we’ve been focused on a simple question: How can these tools help people get the information they need to advocate for themselves and their families? This new support will allow us to deepen that work, and all of our work for Georgia's children and families—continuing to learn, experiment, and explore how to expand access to information, strengthen the work of nonprofits, and help communities have a voice in how new technologies are used. Georgia Appleseed is one of 163 nonprofits across the country receiving support through the People-First AI Fund. We’re grateful to the OpenAI Foundation for this investment in our mission and in community-driven approaches to AI.
