AFP's Youth in Philanthropy Program on display at the Tucson
International Airport!
Framed photo-journals written by Sierra Middle School students
are now on display at the Southwest Airlines Ticket Counter.
In partnership with AFP's (Southern Arizona Chapter) Youth in
Philanthropy program, a matching grant from VisionMARK, and
a grant from NIKE to purchase cameras, students chronicled the
process of 1) determining a community need, 2) selecting an
agency or program to provide for that need, and 3) raising money
to support the program selected. Students chose a walk-a-thon
to raise almost $2,500 for Easter Seals Arizona's Adaptive Respite
& Recreation Camp program for children with disabilities. |

Community Foundation for Southern Arizona Announces Grant Recipients
The Community Foundation for Southern Arizona (CFSA) has awarded more than $145,000 to 31
nonprofit agencies during its annual Spring Grant Round. The grants fund a broad spectrum of
programs and services in four categories-Culture and Recreation, Health and Human Services,
Education and Personal Development and Community Enhancement and Environment. While the Foundation
granted more than $5 million in 2003-2004, the Spring Grant Round represents revenue generated for
unrestricted and discretionary grant making. "This funding is a vital source of income for our local
nonprofits," says Steve Alley, President and CEO of the Foundation. "Nationwide, support from individuals
makes up nearly 75% of contributions to nonprofits, but many local organizations, especially those of
smaller size, rely heavily on grants to carry out their missions", Alley reports.
Founded in 1980, the mission of the Community Foundation for Southern
Arizona is to work with charitably minded individuals and organizations
to strengthen Southern Arizona communities, now and for generations
to come. For a complete list of grant recipients or to provide
additional support, please call (520) 770-0800 or visit CFSA's
