Arizona Readers Power Local Change

Arizona Republic readers smashed fundraising records this year, donating over $1.3 million to 160 nonprofits across the state—helping families with food, shelter, safety, and healthcare. Since 1993, the campaign has raised over $76 million, with this year’s biggest wins going to hunger relief, housing, domestic violence support, and pediatric medical care—all boosted by a 50-cent match from the Nina Mason Pulliam Charitable Trust. Nearly 70% of funds directly benefit children and families, funding everything from emergency shelters and job training to arts and after-school programs, while nearly 30 nonprofits serving older adults also received critical support. Every dollar donated goes straight to nonprofits, making this a powerful, community-driven effort to meet Arizona’s most urgent needs.
