Community Involvement

We believe strongly in contributing to the growth and well-being of the entire community. You'll find us participating in and supporting the following organizations.
100 Club or Arizona
www.100club.org
When tragedy strikes, the effects are swift and devastating. The 100 Club of Arizona recognizes the need to respond immediately with support and understanding. Whatever the need – financial, advisory or moral support, the 100 Club of Arizona is there to ease the pain of the family of those in fire, public safety or law enforcement who are injured or killed in the line-of-duty.

The charter mission of the 100 Club of Arizona was to come to the immediate financial aid of the family of an officer who gave his or her life in the line-of-duty. As time passed, this mission expanded and changed. At one time, education assistance and medical insurance were provided to survivors. Today, these types of insurance benefits for survivor families are provided by various government branches. The 100 Club aims to provide any type of support needed by beneficiary families. The Club has even paid for a fallen officer’s mother’s yard to be mowed for several years, until her death, because the officer had always mowed her lawn.

The 100 Club of Arizona has more than 2,000 members, and continually seeks to raise awareness of its mission and gain new members from all walks of life. We have memberships available for individuals including teen, child, pet, senior and out-of-state residents, as well as joint memberships and Corporate sponsorships. As a member of the 100 Club of Arizona, you are asked to be a civic-minded individual, support the mission of the organization, pay annual dues, and that you don’t use your membership for personal or professional gain. Corporate memberships start at $500 per year, but are open ended. Some organizations have been able to provide as much as $20,000 annually. The fulfillment you receive from aiding families is a treasure that money can’t buy. To find out about membership opportunities, please click here.


Phoenix Rescue Mission
www.phoenixrescuemission.org
The Phoenix Rescue Mission is a family of people who really care about those who are less fortunate -- and who also roll up their sleeves to see that the work of caring for these people actually happens. Our family is made up of a hard-working Board of Directors who give many contributed hours each month to the policies, procedures, and spiritual conformance of the Mission's operations. Our staff is varied in talent and profession, yet are bound in their common effort and love for the people we serve and the Lord who has charged us to care for them.

Our family is blessed with thousands of donors who give of their time, goods, and funds to allow this organization to carry out our work 24 hours each day and seven days each week.

We would love to have you join our family in any way your heart may lead you. There are many ways that you can help us feed, clothe, provide shelter to the homeless, and assist young families as they strive to gain the skills and self-confidence needed to become independent.

The Rescue Mission's Board of Directors, staff, program participants, volunteers, donors, and others who support the Mission know how dynamic our program and activities are on a day-to-day basis. This Web site will allow us to keep you informed of the Lord's work as we serve the homeless, poor and disenfranchised. So please visit us often.

Thanks for dropping in.
