Join us September 15-19, 2024 to celebrate community, giving back and being #SunnysideStrong!

​

Each year during Sunnyside Gives Week our comunidad comes together to raise funds to invest in the work of the Sunnyside Foundation with a series of events bringing community together. 

This year we aim to raise $125,000 to invest in students, families and educators on Tucson's southside. 

​

Whether you donate, volunteer or attend our events, your support helps us reach our goals. 

With you, we are #SunnysideStrong!
