Marica,

Most states require some sort of registration, licensing or other filing of forms in order to conduct charitable fundraising activities. One of the things we're trying to do among a volunteer group is to identify what those rules are in the various states where OCF might want to solicit funds.

I took a quick look at what I could find for the Georgia rules, and they don't look too time-consuming (some of the states are much more so). Since you're still about 2 months away from the event, there should be time to coordinate whatever would need to be filed with the state on behalf of OCF.
