NJSL Grant

Each year, the NJSL demonstrates its commitment to Coweta County by awarding a grant to a local nonprofit. Funds are raised through our signature spring fundraisers—Mardi Gras Casino Night and the Legends of the League Golf Tournament—and are directed to organizations creating meaningful, measurable change in the lives of Coweta residents. This grant reflects NJSL’s continued dedication to strengthening our community through purposeful partnership.

Scholarships

Each spring, NJSL awards college scholarships to outstanding young women graduating from Coweta County high schools. These scholarships honor not only academic achievement but also leadership, character, and a heart for service. It is our privilege to invest in the next generation of women who will lead, serve, and inspire their communities.

Interested students should contact their school counselor for more information and an application.

Annual Can-A-Thon

Each fall, NJSL partners with Coweta County Schools and local businesses for our annual Can-A-Thon, the county’s largest food drive. Together, we collect thousands of non-perishable items—stocking the community food pantry and feeding local families for nearly an entire year.

Christmas in Newnan

With the funds raised from our annual Clay Shoot, we provide Christmas gifts to local children in foster care throughout Coweta County. One of NJSL’s most cherished and heartfelt traditions, Christmas in Newnan is about more than just presents – it’s a reminder to these children that their community sees them, values them, and wants them to feel joy during the holiday season.
