Marietta is once again in the national spotlight after being named the #1 Most Generous City in the United States by GoFundMe for 2024. This marks the third time Marietta has topped the list and the sixth consecutive year it has ranked among the top three cities nationwide.
To celebrate, the City of Marietta and GoFundMe are teaming up for a special evening during the May 30th 2025 Glover Park Concert Series. The celebration will begin at 6 pm on the Marietta Square, ahead of a concert by Canyonland (California Country Rock) featuring Michelle Malone .
In addition to the live music, the event will include giveaways, a photo booth, and interactive activities that are all free and open to the public. The recognition from GoFundMe is based on donation activity per capita and highlights Marietta’s continued tradition of civic engagement and generosity.
As Mayor Steve “Thunder” Tumlin put it, “Our residents consistently show up for one another with compassion and generosity. We are proud of this national recognition and grateful to celebrate our community together on May 30th.”
