Our comunidad comes together each September, not just to celebrate who we are, but to invest in who we’re becoming during Sunnyside Gives Week.
Gives Week is more than a fundraiser; it’s a movement powered by love, unity, and the belief that when we give back, we rise together.
This year, we’re setting our sights high: $125,000 to support our work at the Sunnyside Foundation and the students, families, and educators shaping the future of Tucson’s southside.
Whether you donate, volunteer, or show up and show love, your support fuels the mission of the Sunnyside Foundation and reminds us all what it means to be #SunnysideStrong.​
