Together, We Can Do So Much

Georgia Aquarium is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting our Southeastern community. As part of our commitment to giving back, we review requests from eligible nonprofit organizations and proudly partners with wish-granting organizations to create meaningful experiences. Through these efforts, we aim to extend our mission beyond our walls by fostering connection, accessibility, and inspiration for those we serve.

Ticket Donation for Fundraising

Requests for support must be received through the online donation request form three months prior to event date. Requests via phone, mail, fax and email will not be accepted. Limit one fulfillment per year.

Due to the large volume of requests we receive, we can only consider requests from non-profit, educational, cultural or children’s organizations located in the state of Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Alabama and Florida. Donation requests for individuals will not be accepted.

Eligible Groups / Events Not Eligible

As a non-profit organization dependent on the community, we must honor and respect our donors and partners by carefully evaluating and fulfilling requests as resources allow. Due to the large number of requests we receive, we may not be able to fulfill your request at this time; however, we will notify you by email and encourage you to apply again in the future. We receive hundreds of requests each month and do our best to respond in a timely manner, typically 4–6 weeks prior to your event date. Applications submitted January 1, 2026 or later must meet the eligibility criteria.
