BENEFITING
Child Crisis Arizona serves children and families by protecting Arizona’s
most vulnerable children from abuse and neglect by helping to create
strong, successful families. With a vision of a community where children
and families have the support and opportunities they need to thrive, they
strengthen families through: education, intervention, licensing and training
foster and adoptive families and by providing a safe environment for
children to learn and heal.
Phoenix-based A New Leaf serves more than 17,500 homeless
individuals and families each year, providing a broad spectrum
of support services to help them succeed. From basic needs to
career development to budgeting, A New Leaf focuses on providing
the critical skills to achieve lifelong independence. Successes are
measured by employment, healthier lifestyles, enhanced life skills,
high school diplomas/GEDs, college degrees, and savings accounts
and self-sufficiency. In addition to the basic needs of food and shelter
services, other resources include affordable housing solutions,
behavioral health and case management services, foster care,
counseling, financial literacy and coaching.

This year’s silent auction was the most successful in AZ Biz Bash history, raising more than $48,000. A big Biz Bash thank you goes to Coffin & Trout Fine Jewellers for their three-year partnership with their donation of an exquisite Rolex watch featured in the Watch This! raffle. The raffle was responsible for helping raise more $51,000 for our Biz Bash beneficiaries since 2014.
