The American Friends of the Georgian Group (AFGG) is a not-for-profit organisation that provides financial and other support to The Georgian Group in England.  

The AFGG has 501-C(3) tax status in the USA and since its inception has made several grants to The Georgian Group for various purposes, including improvements to 6 Fitzroy Square and contributions towards the cost of employing caseworkers. Grants for research or repairs have also been made to American foundations caring for Georgian period houses in the United States.

A programme of events is organised for AFGG members, the centrepiece of which is an exclusive annual trip to country houses in Britain. This special visit for a small interested group of American Friends provides access to private houses of particular architectural interest and, while expertly guided, endeavours to retain the informal atmosphere of a country house party. The 2007 trip, based at luxurious Weston Park, took in a selection of the great houses of Staffordshire and Shropshire. The 2008 trip, currently being arranged, is to Gloucestershire and will take place 6-10 October. See the link on the right for further details.
