GVR Foundation

A nonprofit organization

Our Mission: Strengthening our Community The Foundation's focus is on charitable giving and enhancing our community. We strive to enrich the lives of residents through programs, advocacy and financial support.

Who We Are:
Established in 2015, the GVR Foundation grew out of a need to support GVR and Green Valley community activities.
Why Are We Needed?

* GVR Member Assistance Program (MAP) Since 1995, more than 800 GVR members with limited financial resources have received financial aid from the Foundation to help pay their GVR dues.

* GVR Pickleball Club In 2018 the Foundation assisted the GVR Pickleball with a capital campaign to help support their new pickleball complex. Routing funding through the Foundation allowed donations to be tax deductible by the individual making the donation. The Foundation also secured grants from both the White Elephant and Freeport-McMoRan Foundation to assist this effort.

* Southern Arizona Senior Games Held annually each spring, this event for seniors 50+ is sponsored by the Foundation and features more than 30 different sports and recreation competitions.

* RetireAZ Website This website was developed by the Foundation with the help of a Freeport McMoRan Foundation grant, and enhances local economic development by promoting the community to retirees.

The Foundation's long term goals are as follows:
• Develop recreational and social programs for special needs individuals.
• Launch health & wellness initiatives that support the community.
• Leverage collaboration & partnerships that bring greater good to our community.
• Encourage area tourism
• Offer support for distinctive projects within the community
