Description
Corazón Grants is a competitive grant program of the Community Foundation for Southern Arizona (CFSA), supporting established nonprofit organizations deeply rooted in Southern Arizona. It expands CFSA’s flexible grantmaking to larger organizations beyond CORE’s eligibility range, addressing both a longstanding funding gap and an increasingly uncertain funding environment.
Organizations can direct support where it is needed most: responding to emerging issues, strengthening salaries and benefits, investing in technology and infrastructure, or building communications and fundraising capacity. Rooted in mutual trust, the program recognizes that nonprofits understand their own needs. It seeks stronger, healthier, more resilient organizations whose community relationships, partnerships, leadership, and learning contribute to sustained regional impact.
