Westside Future Fund’s John Ahmann Named to Georgia Trend’s 100 Most Influential Georgians
Westside Future Fund (WFF) is proud to celebrate the recognition of our President and CEO, John Ahmann, as one of Georgia Trend magazine’s 100 Most Influential Georgians for 2025. This prestigious list honors individuals who are shaping Georgia’s future through impactful leadership and meaningful contributions to their communities.
“I am deeply honored and humbled to have been named one of Georgia Trend’s 100 Most Influential Georgians is a deeply humbling honor, but more than that, it’s a recognition of the transformative progress happening right here in Atlanta’s historic Westside. This acknowledgment belongs to the collective effort of our community — partners, supporters, team members and residents — who share in the vision of revitalizing the Westside while honoring its rich legacy.
The Westside is a cornerstone of Atlanta’s history, where leaders like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. lived and where stories of resilience and hope continue to unfold. Through Westside Future Fund’s mission, we’re working to ensure this community’s future reflects its remarkable past. Whether it’s creating affordable, quality housing through Home on the Westside, supporting cradle-to-career education, fostering community health or improving safety, our work is about more than revitalization — it’s about equity, opportunity and preserving the heart of this community.
This recognition is a testament to what we can achieve when we come together. None of this would be possible without the belief and dedication of those who stand alongside us in this mission. Thank you for your unwavering commitment to the Westside’s future. Together, we are building a community that not only reflects its historic significance but also creates opportunities for generations to come.”
