Cox Charities Southern Arizona is offering its 2025 Community Grant program to support impactful local initiatives in the region. This opportunity is part of the Cox Charities West Region, which spans markets across the western United States, including Southern Arizona. Cox Charities is a philanthropic arm of Cox Communications, a private company dedicated to fostering positive change through community investment.
The grant program is designed to support projects in three key focus areas: K-12 STEM Education, Conservation and Sustainability, and Food and Housing Insecurity. The objective is to champion initiatives that extend STEM learning beyond the classroom, promote environmental stewardship and sustainability practices, and provide critical support for individuals and families facing food and housing challenges.
Eligible applicants include nonprofit organizations operating within Southern Arizona. The grant awards a fixed amount of $10,000 per selected project. While the total program funding and number of awards have not been disclosed, the program traditionally supports a range of impactful initiatives within the eligible focus areas.
The application process is straightforward, requiring organizations to outline the specific project to be funded, confirm the $10,000 request, and categorize the project under one of the three primary focus areas and their respective subcategories. Applications open on June 1, 2025, and close on June 30, 2025. The grant is not offered on a rolling basis but is recurring, with the next cycle anticipated in June 2026.
No matching funds are required for this grant. There are no stated restrictions on spending beyond alignment with the focus areas. Contact information for the grant administrator was not provided in the source materials.
