Tempe Nonprofits and Charities

The Veteran Tickets Foundation has been an incredible blessing to our family. As a veteran family, there are many events and experiences we simply would not have been able to afford on our own. Thanks to Vet Tix, we have had the opportunity to enjoy special outings, create lasting memories, and spend quality time together without the financial burden. The generosity of the donors and the mission of this organization truly make a difference in the lives of veterans and their families. These experiences are about much more than entertainment—they provide moments of connection, joy, and appreciation that many veterans deserve after their service and sacrifices. We are deeply grateful for the opportunities Vet Tix has provided us and highly recommend supporting this outstanding organization. Thank you for giving families like ours the chance to experience events that would otherwise be out of reach. Your impact is greater than you know.

I have been a volunteer, a foster & have adopted from Lost Our Home Pet Rescue. Everyone there truly care about the pets in their care & the pets and pet parents they help during times of crisis. What a wonderful organization!

As a longtime listener and supporter, and now a Friends of Public Radio board member, I appreciate KJZZ/KBAQ’s commitment to veracity as it strives to serve our community. Having served on a number of non-profits over several decades, I can attest to KJZZ/KBAQ’s professionalism. For almost 8 years now, I have watched this bare bones staff provide exceptional programming and even manage through a substantial loss of government financial support. Fortunately, they have earned the sustained support of their loyal listeners. I have come to learn just how important public radio is to a vibrant community and KJZZ/KBAQ’s is a stellar example!

I began mentoring with Future for KIDS this school year and have had a wonderful experience! I truly enjoy spending time with the kids, and the support that comes from the other mentors, program leads, and program management is fabulous. FFK also makes it a point to plan fun social and educational events for mentors and program staff to mingle, get to know one another better, and share our individual experiences with one another so that we can all learn from them and provide the best support possible to the children that we work with. I look forward to continuing to work with Future for KIDS.

DSNetwork is a great organization. They are able to support not only families with individuals with Down syndrome, but they provide information and programs to the community to better understand what Down syndrome is.

Solari isn’t in the top 3 best places to work, according to the Phoenix Business Journal, for no reason. There are wonderful benefits, a leadership team that truly cares, employees who love the role they play in their community, and fulfillment from this job like no other. This company is always looking for ways to make sure their employees feel valued and heard. They make Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion a top priority. Solari prioritizes their workers feelings of safety and inclusion and investigate any claims that may indicate otherwise, where most companies you can’t bring forth those concerns, Solari truly does care and addresses them immediately. This company not only talks the talk, but walks the walk. In a day and age of performative action, it’s refreshing where a company investigates safety and inclusion no matter which position the claim is against and acts accordingly. Their DE&I approach and continued training makes employees feel safe, respected, and connected. <br><br>Additionally, I have never worked for a company that prioritized my well being and mental health than leadership I’ve got to work with at Solari. They have helped me unlearn the toxic habits from other jobs and truly make me feel my well being is most important. They recognize we can’t do the amazing work we do for the community if we aren’t ok. You are never made to feel bad for a mental health day or asking for help, and additionally provided the resources by that very same leadership team. <br><br>Lastly, the leadership and team I work on does not micromanage and the work from home ability is incredible. They truly make a work life balance one that is realistic and achievable. <br><br>I can’t say enough great things about this company and hope to get to remain here and inspire hope for our community for the rest of my working career.

Back in December of 2014 I was about 7 months pregnant I was completely alone and homeless on the streets of Tempe. I was literally sleeping in a bush. I was cold, hungry, frightened and worried about how I was going to survive from one day to the next. One day I was told about the iHelp program in Tempe and I went there. It was a God sent program that I believe literally saved the life of not only myself but my unborn baby as well. I got rest, showers and plenty of good food served to me by volunteers who were absolutely amazing! I'm forever grateful to iHelp program for being there for me during the darkest loneliest time of my life. Thanks from the bottom of my heart.

I have known the founder of this charity, Nate Anderson, for quite a while and have watched him with pride as he shares his love of music with others unable to be learn or even be exposed to music as the schools cut back. They have brought instruments, school programs and after school programs to these children. My family and I have helped raise funds and my children have volunteered and are now featured in the ad campaigns.

When our three year old daughter was undergoing cancer treatment, The Melonhead Foundation stepped in to help us out financially. Deb Leone is incredibly compassionate and we're forever thankful for the level of help we received. The Melonhead Foundation is an amazing grass roots organization with extremely dedicated people!

As a special education High School teacher for the past 8 years ,Treasures for Teachers has added to my take home pay. <br>I can always get school supplies, additions to enhance a lesson, and prizes for students to encourage their academic success. The $5.00 fill a bag has made my teaching salary go so much further. Before T4T, I was spending at least $1000 on school supplies for my students. I have been able to add so much more for so much less (money). Thank You T4T for all that you have added to my teaching and my students learning experience.

This a great non-profit to get your kids involve with. It's fun and eduacational. All the volunteers leave feeling humbled and happy to give back to others.

Our son has been an active member of the recreation program operated by The Arc of Tempe. It has provided him with the opportunity to go into the community with his friends.... and has provided us an opportunity to go out without having a concern for his safety and well being. I know the organization has members that have helped other parents gain much needed services from governmental agencies. The one problem I see is a great need for additional space to better meet the needs of the people that they are providing services to in the recreation area.

I been through a lot and I got blessed at the end thank you Jesus so it's time for me to pass on the blessing thank you Arizona

We have been SO happy with music therapy at Higher Octave Healing! I wasn't sure if our son would ever make friends but his music social group has been the best thing for him. The therapist worked with us to make sure his needs were met and we have seen improvement in his ability to be comfortable with other kids his age and talk to them. Love this place!

I am continuing my volunteerism for this organization for many years now and the mission aligns with my personal vision. We work with the cooperation of the Tonto National Forest Service on education to the general public about responsible off-highway vehicle use and resource conservation. Our volunteer's help to improve and maintain designated roads and trails used by off-highway vehicles within the Tonto National Forest. We educate the public on how to maintain the beauty of the Forest and how to properly clean up after themselves. We spend countless hours cleaning up after people that continue to litter through shooting through just dumping garbage. We have struggled with funding that goes toward tools we use and items we rent like tractor trailer dumpsters used for us to fill with the garbage we collect during our cleaning so they can be hauled away. This cost alone takes it's toll on the funds we collect. We also post signs and kiosk to assist in navigation of off-highway persons. This is a big help to all that travel these roads to know where they are, how far they are from an exit in the event of an emergency and to provide for them to feed information to emergency crews to aid them in finding them if need be. <br> <br>The passion all the volunteers have is outstanding and the numbers are growing. There is a large amount of work that we take on and the grant money helps fund our volunteers by providing tools to complete the required work. We would like to thank those that provide funding toward our cause.

As an audio professional approaching 50 I worried about the slight ringing in my left ear. The articles and information The Tinnitus Foundation provide have allowed me to relax and let me know I'm not alone and how to educate myself about whats going on.

As a Member of the Board of Directors, I am very proud of what Tigermountain Foundation has accomplished to help teens-at-risk in a poor neighborhoods of South Phoenix by engaging them in cultivating vegetables in four, at present, community gardens that are located on formerly vacant lots. In addition, TMF has helped many former prisoners learn some job and life skills with part-time work on landscaping contracts. The recidivism rate for former prisoners in this neighborhood is 81%, but almost none of the former prisoners who have worked with TMF have returned to prison. <br> <br>Tigermountain Foundation just rented space at the Brooks Community School, a former elementary school in the Roosevelt School District. That space is now being used as an office and a meeting room. The next step will be to engage a large group of neighborhood teenagers to build and cultivate a large new vegetable garden on what used to be the athletic field of that former school. TMF has applied for two grants to finance the initiation of that garden. <br> <br>The sale of vegetables from the TMF gardens to a local restaurant and at several Farmers Markets brings in over half of the revenue that TMF needs to continue operations since it was founded in 2007. But donations and grants have played an important role in funding after-school gardening programs and other classes for the local children and teenagers. <br> <br>St Luke's Health Initiatives offered and signed an agreement with TMF in 2014 to serve as the Fiscal Sponsor for TMF. This has already opened the door for TMF to apply for more grants.

My name is Victoria Lewis and I am a small business owner in the state of Arizona that has been suffering greatly. At so the step, the the system and systemic racism horrifying non lending of small businesses that are double minorities. And I was just horrified but the level of treatment that I received from this this. Disgusting firm;<br><br>Title: A Disappointing Encounter: Review of the Arizona Microcredit InitiativeI recently reached out to the Arizona Microcredit Initiative seeking assistance for my struggling small business. What ensued was not only disappointing but also deeply troubling.Upon contacting them and spending over half an hour on the phone, I expected guidance and support tailored to the unique challenges faced by small businesses like mine. Instead, I was met with blatant racism, horror, and disgust. The representative provided nothing more than what any standard bank would require for a loan application, completely disregarding the complexities of my situation.As a small business owner grappling with severe underfunding, disability, and vulnerability, I had hoped for empathy and constructive feedback. However, the Arizona Microcredit Initiative failed miserably in this regard. Their lack of understanding and support left me feeling even more marginalized and victimized.It is appalling that an organization purportedly dedicated to assisting struggling businesses would exhibit such callousness and incompetence. Their failure to provide genuine assistance only serves to exacerbate the challenges faced by small business owners in Arizona.In conclusion, the Arizona Microcredit Initiative is nothing more than a sham, offering empty promises and replicating the same requirements as traditional banks without providing any real help or support to those who need it most.

While I no longer work for Childsplay, this organization has remained one of my dearest arts and culture organizations in Phoenix. They treat every production and every program as an opportunity to expand the minds and imaginations of children in a way that is authentic and true to their current lives. You can tell that they respect the intelligence of children and care about the unique challenges the face today. Childsplay's bravery and creativity when tackling these difficult themes makes them the best entertainment (and enlightenment) for children in our community.

Sonoran Prevention Works is one of the most dedicated and passionate organizations, across the Arizona region, dealing with the opioid crisis. It is a harrowing topic that often is difficult for many to grasp and understand the opioid overdose epidemic, not only in Arizona, but across the nation. Last year (in 2016), almost 800 Arizonans died from an overdose of an opioid prescription last year. To say Sonoran Prevention Works is out there in the streets, saving lives, is an understatement. Last month (October 2017), the committed staff and Executive Director, Haley Coles, distributed over 100,000 syringes, overdose prevention kits, advocacy workshops, and education trainings for law enforcement officers and health professionals. It is a much needed and valuable organization dedicated to helping those faced with drug use/abuse vulnerabilities and the risk of death due to high risk behavior. I support it wholeheartedly and encourage others to do so.

We got to know AZBCR (www.azbcr.org) purely by chance. In the summer of 2012, we lost our beloved BC Stray Sage. My husband was so depressed, he started looking for a dog right away and he found one through AZBCR. Long story short, Lou joined our family 2 weeks later. Lou's foster parents are wonderful people who really understand the herding breeds. We became friends and 2.5 years later adopted our Malibu through them. I became a volunteer and joined AZBCR's FB page so we can be part of the greater AZBCR family. Through this, we get to know more about its volunteers and also the group's President Kelly Q. On the daily basis, among all the funny antidotes and cute pictures, volunteers actively rescue, transport, foster, and place border collies with whom they come in contact. Earlier in 2016, AZBCR took in many pregnant female BCs, they had about 50 puppies in various foster homes in the first month! Foster homes and volunteers all helped in whatever ways they could to birth, raise, and place all the dogs. Currently (Mar-Apr) they have dogs with medical issues in different stages of treatments. Through the years, AZBCR have rescued and adopted out 2100+ dogs and they did it entirely with volunteers. AZBCR, once committed to take in a dog, does everything possible to give it a good life. Their foster homes usually keep a dog for at least 2 weeks and to get to know their charges well, so they can properly match a potential adopter with a compatible dog. They also use that 2 weeks to work with the dog, if conditions allow, so it learns as many basic commands and good-dog-manners as possible before it is adopted. I have adopted pets from various organizations throughout the years, AZBCR is the most dedicated and caring group of people I have gotten to know. Thanks to social media, it brought these like-minded folks together because they share the love for BCs. Their passion and their love have saved countless dogs throughout the years, I am very happy to have been part of it.
