CFSA provided $854,000 in CORE Grants to 42 nonprofits in Southern Arizona to provide the flexible working capital necessary to maximize their impact and improve the quality of life in Southern Arizona.
CFSA’s 2021 CORE Grants are made possible with support from CFSA’s Unrestricted Fund and Field of Interest Funds, our generous Donor Advised Fundholders, and the Connie Hillman Family Foundation. Areas funded include human services; arts and culture; environment and animals; legal services; education; health; youth and elderly services; immigrant services; and Native/Indigenous support.
Each week, a new funded organization will be added to this article as we celebrate 42 days of CORE!

Growth Partners Arizona
"The CORE Grant from CFSA is a big operational boost, allowing us to continue building our organization and programs, which in turn will increase awareness in our target markets and grow the number of new loans we can make. The more capital access we can provide, the more we help improve our communities in Arizona." - Lesli Pintor, Executive Director, Growth Partners Arizona
