CREATE CHANGE FOR WOMEN AND GIRLS IN OUR COMMUNITY

$1 Million Challenge Goal Met Early

Thank you Southern Arizona!

Thank you for making 2018 Annual Luncheon on April 18, 2018 a success for women and girls!
Known as the biggest charitable luncheon event in Tucson, the 2018 Luncheon–our 25th annual–was held on April 18, 2018 at Tucson Convention Center. Thanks to our generous sponsors, supporters and partners, together, we celebrated women and girls in our community, honored the incredible Gail Giclas, highlighted over $700,000 in grant awards and presented the 2018 Laura Penny Community Impact Award.

In the last 10 years, our grantmaking has tripled. Yet, less than 8% of our all foundation giving in the U.S. goes to women and girls. We are so grateful to our donors for working to change this.
