Each year the Community Foundation for Southern Arizona grants local nonprofit organizations millions of dollars from our donors to help carry out the work that makes southern Arizona such a wonderful place to live.  Over $3M was distributed in 2009.

Our grants are defined by the charitable interests of our donors and fund holders. Some of our funds are donor advised and some are unrestricted. Our Community Investment grants provide funding to 501(c)(3) nonprofits located in or primarily serving southern Arizona.
