At StandUp for Kids Tucson, we are deeply grateful for every donor, volunteer, and organization that has joined us in the mission to end the cycle of youth homelessness.
Every minute given, every dollar donated, and every conversation shared is an investment in the life of a young person in need. Your support brings hope, stability, and opportunity to those who need it most.
THANK YOU 2025 Investors in Youth!
Pima Federal Credit Union: Leading with Heart
Pima Federal Credit Union has consistently shown their commitment to at-risk youth in our community. With a heart for service and compassion, they have supported our mission time and again. In 2025, they once again stepped up to sponsor our annual Grit and Gratitude Gala and were the first to commit to helping in 2026! Then keep the last line…we are incredibly grateful.
We are incredibly grateful for their continued partnership and impact!
SJI Financial is one of our newest donors, and they are starting off strong with a truckload of in-kind gifts and a commitment to supporting food access in 2026. We are so grateful you found us and for your heart for helping our kids.
Corpus Christi Catholic Church – A community that always shows up!
From the dedicated quilters group to Project Outreach, from individual champions like Diane and Maura to the entire parish community after Mass, Corpus Christi comes through like no other.
In 2025 alone, they’ve supported our mission in countless ways: providing ongoing donations for food and hygiene packs, contributing auction items for our inaugural gala, preparing Thanksgiving dinner for our youth, donating Christmas gifts and stocking stuffers, and lovingly handmaking stockings, a tradition they’ve kept alive for more years than we can count.
Whenever we reach out, Diane’s response is always the same:
“We’re on it!”
And they truly are. Thank you, Corpus Christi, for being a constant source of kindness, compassion, and unwavering support.
A Pillar of Generosity: Thank You, Jim Click
In addition to offering Tucson’s entire nonprofit community the incredible opportunity to participate in the Jim Click Millions for Tucson Raffle, Mr. Click consistently goes above and beyond, often surprising organizations with additional support simply for showing up.
His generosity, infectious energy, and unwavering commitment to giving back uplift everyone around him. Jim Click is truly a pillar of our community, and we are so grateful for his continued support and belief in our mission.
StandUp for Kids Tucson sold the 2025 Millions for Tucson WINNING TICKET!

Alpha Xi Delta Alumnae – retirement doesn’t stop these ladies!
Thank you for your ongoing support in preparing and providing hygiene packs for our youth. Access to basic hygiene not only supports physical health but also boosts emotional well-being, confidence, and dignity, making a real difference in their daily lives.
