Employee Giving (Corporate Match)
Many employers will match a gift you make to a nonprofit. Your effortless gift could be instantly doubled (or in some cases more). To see if your employer will match your giving, use the search function below. It really could be just as easy as giving a few minutes of your time for your generous gift stretch twice as far!
Amazon Smile
Do you shop on Amazon? At absolutely no additional cost to you, we’ll receive .5% of every order you place when you select BGCT as your charity of choice on Amazon Smile. Over the course of a year, that adds up to thousands of extra dollars we put directly into our mission of serving Tucson’s youth!
Signing up is easy! On Amazon Smile, sign in with the same username and password as you would with your normal Amazon account. On My Account click “Settings”, and in the charities search bar type in “Boys & Girls Clubs of Tucson”. Click Select when you see us, and that’s it: we are now your preferred charity. When you’re done, why not send us a quick email to let us know so we can properly thank you and invite you for a Club tour if interested?
Giving Tuesday
Giving Tuesday is the Tuesday that follows Thanksgiving every year. Its mission is to create an entire day centered around the idea of doing good in the world.
For Giving Tuesday this year, consider a special donation to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Tucson in support of our work with thousands of at-risk youth every year.
Or if you would rather get involved in a more hands-on way, explore a volunteering option or even schedule a visit at one of our six Clubhouses to find out how you can support our mission.
AZ Gives Day
Having raised nearly $30 million for non-profits, Arizona Gives Day is one of the most important for non-profits in the state of Arizona. You can make a gift through AZ Gives’ website or start your own fundraiser for BGCT.
