Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Education, Recreation & Sports, Sports
Mission: SAFE's goal is to encourage responsible firearm ownership and to help teach the proper, safe, and legal ways to use firearms. We work with other youth groups to teach the safe use of firearms and support participation in the shooting sports.
Target demographics: SAFE directs most of its resources to teaching youth and women the safe use of firearms by teaching the proper fundamentals.
Direct beneficiaries per year: Five organizations reach out to over 300 youth in southern Arizona.
Geographic areas served: Southern Arizona.
Programs: SAFE is a Club affiliate of the National Rifle Association and the Civilian Marksmanship Program and we support local and national firearms training. We provide equipment and instruction to youth groups such as the Boys Scouts Of America, 4H, Civilian Air Patrol, and Diamondback Shooting Sports. We are also involved with Scholastic Shooting Sports Foundation including the 'Straight Shooters' SASP team and the WildGats at the University of Arizona. Our members can provide NRA Instructor and NRA Coach training classes when needed for team leader certification. We also facilitate NRA-approved classes such as Women On Target. This class is designed and operated specifically to empower women to learn the safe, responsible use of firearms associated with the shooting sports, or for self defense with a firearm if it becomes necessary.
