10 Reasons Why You Should Donate on Arizona Gives Day
by Jennifer Purcell
Donors, collectively, are part of a larger community and can have a significant impact on our lives and our neighbor’s lives. However, according to the National Council of Nonprofits, charitable giving by corporations, foundations, individuals and bequests to support the work of nonprofits dropped 10.5% last year and giving by individuals fell 13.4% after adjusting for inflation.
That’s why this year’s Arizona Gives Day is so important. Here are some great reasons to consider donating a gift on Arizona Gives Day (AZGives.org) on April 2, 2024.
1. Nonprofit organizations are the strength of our local communities. They’re organic, evolving and dynamic ... like grassroots movements often are. For a nonprofit’s mission to thrive, they need the financial support of donors, of those who are willing to get behind what they are trying to solve, treat, protect, save, teach or accomplish. Donations help nonprofits not just run programs but create sustainable and thriving organizations.
2. Nonprofits rely on donations to fulfill their missions; they can’t do their work without your donations. Nonprofit organizations are a critical part of our economy and community eco-system and provide essential services and resources. Nonprofits make up 10% of Arizona’s workforce and contribute more than 9% to Arizona’s GDP (gross domestic product).
3. Arizona Gives (AZGives.org) verifies that the participating nonprofits are legitimate nonprofits. Every year, nonprofits are required to re-enroll, and status with the IRS is verified to ensure donors are donating to organizations that would allow them to take a federal tax deduction. To be safe, an organization should be asking you to donate directly to their organization’s custom web page on AZGives.org.
4. You can give a donation(s) that is meaningful … to you. People often worry about whether their donation is “big enough” or will make a difference. Every nonprofit will tell you that there is no donation too small — every donation makes a difference. Arizona Gives was created to showcase our collective impact and power of giving back!
5. You can filter and sort nonprofit organizations on AZGives.org. If you are passionate about a particular cause
About the 2024 Giving Guide
We are pleased to offer the list of Impact for Good members who are participating in Arizona Gives Day coming up on April 2, 2024. In Business Magazine is proud to create this Giving Guide to provide business owners and the more than 36,000 subscribers of the magazine information on local nonprofits that they may work with to better our community. Our goal is to give these groups exposure for a full month prior to Arizona Gives Day so that they may realize additional benefit among the business community.
or causes, you can filter and sort by geography, mission, demographics, county and more to narrow your search.
6. AZGives.org is a shopping cart experience. You can give to as many nonprofits as you want at the same time — all in one single transaction. And if you create a donor account, you can track all the donations you make on AZGives.org each year.
7. You can create a fundraiser page for your favorite nonprofit. Once you’ve created a donor account, it’s just five easy steps to create a fundraiser page. There, you can share your story about why a particular nonprofit is so important to you and why everyone you know should consider donating.
8. You can set up a recurring gift. Maybe a one-time larger gift is too much for your monthly budget. AZGives. org provides you a variety of options to establish a recurring donation so you can easily budget and plan. Donors are always in control and able to adjust their recurring gift at any time.
9. Charitable Giving eCards make the perfect gift. You can purchase an Arizona Gives Giving eCard in any dollar amount for your friends, family and co-workers. Then they can choose which nonprofit organization receives that donation.
10. AZGives.org accepts donations year-round. Donors can make a donation to a participating nonprofit 365 days of the year.
Find your cause at AZGives.org today, on April 2 or any day of the year and support nonprofits that are making our Arizona communities a better place to live.
How to Give: We urge you, as a company or as an individual, to give on Arizona Gives Day. By participating on this day, you connect or even reconnect with a nonprofit to support its cause and become a true supporter of all that is important in our community.
Go Beyond Gives Day: We ask that you connect with your nonprofit, and we challenge you to choose one or more organizations to work with in this coming year. By volunteering time, talent and treasure, your organization is likely to gain in more ways that you might expect.
Thank you for giving back to our community!

Aunt Rita’s Foundation
Aunt Rita’s Foundation has a long-standing commitment to ending HIV in Arizona. Since our inception in the 1980s, when we began as a humble bake-sale fundraiser for those being impacted by HIV, we have evolved into the leading philanthropy nonprofit organization in the state, delivering vital funding for programs in at-risk communities and playing a central role in the fight against rising HIV infections.
Through our initiatives, we have granted millions of dollars in support of HIV education, prevention and treatment programs across Arizona.
As the hub of the HIV community, we offer programs that “fill in the gaps,” including FREE at-home HIV test kits, FREE HIV/STI testing statewide through our partners at Albertsons/ Safeway Pharmacies and Sonora Quest Labs,
advocacy, HIV & Aging programs, a Positive Empowerment Youth Retreat, and a Diversity and Culture Council to support minority populations and advise on best practices for lowering incidence rates in our highest-risk communities.
At Aunt Rita’s Foundation, we recognize that social determinants of health play a crucial role in individuals’ health outcomes and quality of life. We provide programming, linkages to HIV prevention and treatment providers, and connections to basic needs such as nutrition support and housing.
Your support of Aunt Rita’s Foundation will enable us to continue operating these critical programs and help us end the HIV epidemic in our great state. Join us today in our mission to create a healthier and more equitable Arizona.

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Arizona
For more than 65 years, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Arizona (BBBSAZ) has operated under the belief that inherent in every child is the ability to succeed and thrive in life. BBBSAZ makes meaningful, professionally supported matches between adult volunteers (“Bigs”) and children (“Littles”), ages 6 through 18, in Maricopa County and Pinal County. We develop positive relationships that have a direct and lasting effect on the lives of young people. Our volunteers help children in our community who need and deserve mentors build self-confidence and realize their potential.
At BBBSAZ, one of our keystone beliefs is that every young person has the potential to do great things. Unfortunately, kids today are in crisis and their potential can be threatened.
Anxiety and depressive symptoms doubled for young people during the pandemic, according to the U.S. Surgeon General’s advisory on protecting youth mental health. In 2021, emergency room visits by teens for suspected suicide attempts were 51% higher than in 2020.
At Big Brothers Big Sisters, our mentors add additional layers of support for the mentees enrolled in our programs. Bigs provide a safe, trusting environment where youth can share their thoughts, process their feelings and gain confidence to try new things.
According to an article from Mentor.com, “Mentors have always been assets to young people when they are experiencing periods of stress, depression, anxiety, or even more serious mental health challenges. Inherent in the role of mentor is the idea that this person is there for a youth
through the good and the bad, but especially in times when life feels overwhelming or hopeless.”
National research has shown us that kids matched with mentors through BBBS programs had better mental health outcomes than their peers. In addition, research has shown that kids in BBBSAZ mentoring programs are:
• 46% - less likely than their peers to begin using illegal drugs
• 27% - less likely to begin using alcohol
• 52% - less likely to skip school
• 37% - less likely to skip a class
• 33% - less likely to hit someone
They also exhibit an increase in resiliency and overall self-esteem.
Please consider joining us to protect the mental health of youth in our community!! Together, we can provide the support kids need to be successful and reach their full potential.
VOLUNTEER to become a Big. Meet up with your Little at least two times per month for one year to do things you enjoy. Explore your common interests together but, most importantly, be a listening ear and a source of guidance for a kid. To learn more visit bbbsaz.org/volunteer.
DONATE in support of our mentorship programs. BBBSAZ is a qualifying organization for the Arizona State Tax Credit. Through this program, your donation becomes a dollar-fordollar tax credit (up to $400 per individual or $800 per couple, filing jointly). To make a gift, please visit bbbsaz.org/donate.
For other questions or to look into enrolling a child, please visit bbbsaz.org.

Junior Achievement of Arizona
For more than 65 years, Junior Achievement of Arizona (JA) has been preparing millions of Arizona students to succeed in work and life. We’re empowering their futures by giving them the knowledge and skills they need to manage their money; plan for their future; and make smart academic, career and economic choices. Delivered by 8,000+ business and community volunteer mentors, our hands-on, age-appropriate programs focus on three key areas: career readiness, financial literacy and entrepreneurship. At the foundation of all our programs is teaching students the ability to think critically. Equally impactful, we’ll open their eyes to future possibilities and help them apply those important skills to unlock their own future potential.
Set to serve more than 110,000 students this year and more than 3 million since its founding, JA is shaping the college- and career-readiness conversation, and we play an important role in Arizona’s workforce and economic development. Our programs help students connect what they learn in the classroom to the real world, and demonstrate how learning correlates to earning
— knowledge critical to empowering today’s students to be successful, contributing members of society in the future.
We serve students with diverse backgrounds and socio-economic status throughout Arizona. While our programs are invaluable to all students regardless of background, the majority of the students we serve come from low-income households.
Our programs support the K-25 continuum, reaching students wherever and however they are learning today. Today, our programs have expanded to reach primarily low-income learners in 400+ schools across the State of Arizona, in addition to partnering with other nonprofits and organizations focused on reaching opportunity youth.
We are wholly dependent on the financial and volunteer support of individuals, foundations and businesses. Our in-classroom programs are offered at no cost to teachers or students.
Donations to Junior Achievement are Arizona Charitable Tax Credit eligible, up to $400 per individual and $800 per couple filing jointly. Please consider empowering the future of Arizona kids.

Spotlight On: New Pathways for Youth
In the communities we serve, youth experience poverty and three times the adversity of their peers. Beyond the instability and insecurity that makes it difficult to meet their most basic needs, these youth experience social, emotional and cognitive obstacles that bar them from living the joyful, purposeful life that every young person deserves.
At New Pathways for Youth, we are changing that. We are building a future where every young person can live their life with joy and purpose, confident in their ability to decide their own path.
To make it happen, we provide 1:1 mentoring with a dedicated adult and a proven program for personal growth, including tailored goalsetting and connection to vital resources, all within a supportive peer group. In doing so, we’re transforming the lives of youth by providing the support, stability and skills they need to flourish in the community and in their families.
Each of our youth receives tailored actionplanning and support according to their needs
and personal goals, as well as connections to critical resources for personal well-being, and daily necessities that support the youth’s entire family, ranging from housing assistance to food security to emergency relief. All of this is complemented by 1:1 support from an adult mentor within a group of peers in order to build stable, nurturing, life-changing relationships.
Our holistic, research-based program is proven to generate remarkable outcomes for the youth we serve — from improved mental health and personal wellness to academic success and greater high school graduation rates. We give them the tools and resources to not only achieve safe, healthy lives but find fulfilling career paths, seize new opportunities and enhance their relationships with their families, peers and all those around them.
With the support of the entire New Pathways community, youth are able to transform their lives and confidently find their own path to fulfillment.

Spotlight On: Phoenix Children’s Foundation
At Phoenix Children’s, providing world-class healthcare for every child in Arizona is more than a mission — it is our promise. We epitomize the bold spirit of the state we serve through our unwavering commitment to delivering exceptional care.
Over the past 40 years, Phoenix Children’s has grown from a single hospital into a nationally recognized pediatric health system serving families across Arizona. Now more than ever, there is an urgent need for pediatric care in our state. Arizona is among the top 10 fastest-growing states in the U.S., and Maricopa County, currently home to more than 1.03 million children, is one of the fastest-growing counties in the nation.
To meet the challenges ahead of us, Phoenix Children’s must continue to evolve. It will take substantial resources to realize these ambitious goals.
In 2022, Phoenix Children’s was named one of U.S. News & World Report’s Best Children’s Hospitals for the 12th consecutive year. The health system also earned recognition as the top children’s hospital in Arizona for the second consecutive year.
Phoenix Children’s is building on these achievements as it continues to invest in the people, research, technologies and programs that make it a destination hospital. That means continuing to recruit physician-scientists who are shaping the future of pediatric medicine; foster discoveries that
improve the quality and length of children’s lives; establish ground-breaking destination programs that attract patients from around the world; and drive innovations that give ill and injured children hope beyond their wildest dreams.
Phoenix Children’s Foundation offers many ways to get involved in and support this work, whether by joining a giving group (phoenixchildrensfoundation.org/givinggroups), attending a Phoenix Children’s event (phoenixchildrensfoundation.org/signature) or finding an inspiring hospital program to support (phoenixchildrensfoundation.org/ways-to-give). Together we can ensure that Phoenix Children’s can provide hope, healing and the best health care to children and families for generations to come.

The Arizona Pet Project
The Arizona Pet Project keeps pets with the people who love and need them most by connecting vulnerable community members and families in crisis with services and resources to prevent the unnecessary surrender of their beloved companions.
The Valley’s only organization focused on bridging the gap between human services and animal welfare, The Arizona Pet Project keeps thousands of pets out of shelters each year, and home with the people who love them.
Thanks to our supporters, families can access emergency and preventive veterinary care, temporary boarding, housing assistance, pet food and supplies, and individualized case management.
In 2021, The Arizona Pet Project opened the community’s first pet support center in South Phoenix to increase access to bilingual information and culturally competent care.
And as a crisis responder, our team ensured thousands of pets in rural and indigenous communities had enough to eat by delivering more than 2 million pounds of dog and cat food across the State of Arizona at the height of the pandemic.
This year, we’re aiming higher and are expanding our programs to include a special focus on military veterans and our unhoused neighbors! Will you join us this Arizona Gives Day in protecting families by providing care for them and their pets?
