Cox Enterprises  announced a $1 million contribution to The Nature Conservancy's "Georgia for Generations" campaign made by the James M. Cox Foundation. The gift will be given in the form of $250,000 annually over the next four years.

"The James M. Cox Foundation and Cox Enterprises have supported The Nature Conservancy for more than 20 years, and the "Georgia for Generations" campaign allows us to make a lasting impact by protecting and conserving our state's natural resources for future generations," said Jim Kennedy, chairman of Cox Enterprises. "We all need to do our part, and my hope is that this gift will inspire others to make a difference in a way that feels right to them."

Kennedy serves as honorary co-chair of the "Georgia for Generations" $25 million campaign. To date, more than $16 million has been raised toward the campaign goal.

The gift  is added to a $1 million donation from Jim and Sarah Kennedy.
