While the foundation recognized the five nonprofits, however, it also handed out a total of $50,000 to five other groups. Those groups included Home of Hope at Gwinnett Children’s Shelter, Street Wise, Hudgens Center for Art and Learning, Auditory Verbal Center and Meadowcreek High School. Each group received $10,000 from the foundation.
