Pat Parris spearheads "The Giving Project – Doing Well, by Doing Good" in partnership with the Community Foundation for Southern Arizona. The first week of each month Pat presents a new nonprofit organization that is making a positive impact in our community and asks you to consider making a donation. Even $5 or $10 will make a difference for those in need.
This February, we're celebrating Black History Month and raising funds for The Dunbar Pavilion, a nonprofit African American arts and culture center located in the historic Dunbar Springs neighborhood.
Through the Dunbar Coalition, the nonprofit has revitalized the former home of the segregated Dunbar School for classrooms and other community spaces. They're making plans to build a future business empowerment center on site.
You can donate to The Dunbar Pavilion through its website.
Thank you to our generous viewers for supporting our January Giving Project with Moksha Sanctuary. Through your donations and a $500 matching grant from the Community Foundation for Southern Arizona, we raised $2681 toward Moksha Sanctuary's wild horses and the sanctuary's future programs.
