Friends of the Quartzsite Food
Bank was awarded $5,000 from
Arizona Financial Credit Union Lo-
cal Causes Grant. Since its launch in
August 2020, the program has pro-
vided over $150,000 to more than
60 unique nonprofi ts, and with Ari-
zona Financials' statewide expan-
sion, organizations across Arizona
were invited to apply. In this grant
cycle, the credit union awarded
$40,000 in total gifts to deserving
nonprofi ts.
"The growth of this program and
the number of nonprofi ts we have
been able to support far surpassed
our expectations when creating Lo-
cal Causes," said Amy Hysell, presi-
dent and CEO of Arizona Financial.
"We have learned so much about
the nonprofi ts that make up the
fabric of the communities we serve,
all doing great work to serve specif-
ic needs. For that we applaud them
and are proud to be a small part of
their greater purpose."
