The Atlanta Press Club (APC) received a $265,000 grant from the Arthur M. Blank Family Foundation to support the costs of the Atlanta Press Club Loudermilk-Young Debate Series in 2025 and 2026. The grant funded APC’s 2025 debate series, which included the races for Public Service Commission, Mayor of Atlanta, and Atlanta City Council President. It will also play a vital role in 2026, when APC anticipates a very active debate season in Georgia with many crucial races on the ballot, including US Senate, Georgia Governor, and Georgia Secretary of State.
