The Community Foundation is supporting effective nonprofits through grants and technical assistance in creating visible, positive impacts for populations most impacted by the economic crisis:

  • Victims of abuse and domestic violence - $100,000

  • Increasingly vulnerable populations - $100,000

  • Populations needing financial empowerment - $125,000

  • Nonprofits needing additional capacity and technical assistance - $117,000

Extensive community research and data provided by 176 nonprofits revealed these four impact areas for this year’s focus.

Information on a variety of nonprofits is also available to CFSA fund holders. View a list at www.cfsoaz.org/ForDonors.

Nonprofits Still Need Your Support
Local nonprofits still need financial support. In the face of increased demand for services, most nonprofits will feel the true effects of the economic downturn over the next 12 months as government funding cuts take effect and the remainder of past donations are used.

Each Gift Makes a Difference
The Community Foundation makes it easy for you to Donate today! You can give to:
- Economic Relief and Stability Fund
