Thunderbird Charities Awards $25,000 for Food Programs

Posted on 05/18/2026

Thunderbirds Charities awarded Paz de Cristo $25,000 this fall to expand food services across the East Valley. The grant supports both our weekly food box distributions and our specialized program for individuals who earn too much to qualify for government assistance but still struggle to afford groceries. Since 2011, Thunderbirds Charities has contributed nearly $130,000 to our work. We’re grateful for their continued investment in our neighbors experiencing hunger and homelessness.
