Georgia Industrial Children's Home (GICH) in Macon, GA, provides residential services for males aged 11-18 who have experienced trauma and require a safe environment to heal emotionally. The young residents live in one of five cottages on the 200-acre campus in Suburban Bibb County, offering a structured and home-like setting.

The GICH campus boasts over seven miles of trails for outdoor activities, partnering with local clubs for maintenance and hosting cross country meets. It features recreational facilities like a low ropes course, climbing tower, and zip line supervised by certified instructors. The campus recently rejuvenated 92 pecan trees to cultivate annual crops.

GICH focuses on guiding youth who have endured trauma towards positive decision-making and behavior changes. With individualized educational support, skill development plans, and counseling services, GICH aims to help residents reach their full potential and prepare for successful futures. Established in 1897 and part of Twin Cedars Youth and Family Services, Inc., GICH continues Reverend Mumford's vision by equipping youth with crucial life skills.
