Georgetown Community Fund
The Georgetown Community Association created the Georgetown Community Fund because we believe in the power of community. Rooted in our town’s long-standing tradition of neighborly support and strong local ties, we’re committed to making Georgetown an even better place to live, work, and raise families.
Through thoughtful fundraising/grants, partnerships, and initiatives, we aim to enhance the overall well-being and community life of all Georgetown residents. Together, we’re building a stronger, more connected community for all!

Georgetown’s New Food Pantry Box
Our new Food Pantry Box on Main Street in Georgetown is officially OPEN!! The box is a simple way for individuals and families to get food assistance. It contains various nutritious, non-perishable items such as canned goods and dry pasta.
How it Works:
Take what you need.
Give what you can. Non-perishable items can be left at the “Pantry” on Main Street.
