Empowering people for a brighter future.

Our Vision

The Phoenix Emerald Foundation became a 501(c)3 charitable organization in 2018 and has continued fundraising to provide vital support to fund multifaceted initiatives that make life better for children and families across Greater Phoenix.

The foundation raises funds through donations and three fundraisers. The Biennial Young Leaders Academy, the Phoenix Emerald Foundation Golf Invitational, Arizona’s only charity golf tournament presented by a women’s organization and the Holiday Gala, which for more than 50 years has culminated Phoenix’s holiday social season.

Through donor engagement, collaboration, community leadership and hands-on service, the Phoenix Emerald Foundation, Incorporated supports programs and initiative that empower children and families to reach their fullest potential and create opportunities for themselves and others.

Our fundraising and philanthropic efforts support local nonprofits and address issues of equity, social justice and community needs in the areas of education, health and well-being, environmental justice, civic engagement and the arts.
