Angel Charity to Grant $1.75 Million to Tucson Nonprofits
For more than four decades, Angel Charity has been recognized as the “Halo for Hire” in Pima County. Its generous donors, combined with the support of volunteer membership, have granted over $33 million to improve the lives of more than one million children. Angel Charity for Children has announced that it will grant $1.75 million to fund eight organizations serving the needs of children in Pima County.
Each year, Angel Charity for Children members select Impact and Opportunity Grant beneficiaries. This year, Angel Charity for Children selected Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southern Arizona and San Miguel High School as its 2025 Impact Grant beneficiaries, in addition to six additional nonprofits as its Opportunity Grant beneficiaries.
“Angel Charity for Children is proud to grant a record-breaking $1.75 million to eight incredible beneficiaries this year, including San Miguel High School and Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southern Arizona.

We are excited to embark on another year of transformative giving and invite the community to join us in making a difference.”
