Mission & Focus Areas
The Board of Visitors states that its mission is to serve the healthcare needs of women, children, and the elderly in the metropolitan Phoenix area. Its grant information says it considers applications from 501(c)(3) organizations serving those populations in the greater Phoenix community.
The 2025 grants illustrate support for a range of healthcare and related services. Banner Health Foundation, which received $245,000, says it raises and stewards charitable contributions for Banner Health programs, facilities, care, research, medical education, and patient services. United Cerebral Palsy of Central Arizona, recipient of $175,000, says it provides services and physical, developmental, and educational support to people with disabilities and their families. Hushabye Nursery, which received $75,000, describes its work as providing compassionate, evidence-based care to substance-exposed babies and their caregivers. These are the grantees’ descriptions of their own missions.
Grantmaking
In filing year 2025, the Board of Visitors reported 17 grants totaling $1,075,000. Grant amounts ranged from $20,000 to $245,000, with a median of $40,000.
Notable 2025 grants included $245,000 to Banner Health Foundation for The Big Pink Bus; $175,000 to United Cerebral Palsy of Central Arizona for a mobility training clinic for children with motor disorders; $100,000 to Valleywise Health Foundation for a pediatric care coordination medical home project; $75,000 to Hushabye Nursery for Tiny Victories; and $60,000 to Child Crisis Arizona for medical and behavioral health for foster children and youth. All 2025 grant dollars went to recipients in Arizona.
The Board of Visitors considers one request per organization per calendar year. Its website describes a process beginning with an online grant request, followed by selection of organizations to submit full proposals; proposals are reviewed, and site visits are scheduled for selected organizations. The organization says grants are awarded at its February Grants Award Celebration. It considers requests for project seed funding, general operating support, and capital campaigns for specified healthcare needs. Organizations previously funded must submit a final grant usage report by February 1 to be considered in the next cycle.
Category A provides one-year requests of up to $200,000 and requires a minimum annual budget of $1 million. Category B provides one-year requests from $5,000 to $100,000 with no minimum budget requirement. Category C awards the net proceeds of the Care Card program and requires a minimum annual budget of $1 million. Category D provides up to $5,000 to start-up or emerging organizations. The website lists April 15, 2027 as the deadline for grant requests and says the current cycle is closed, with applications expected to be accepted again in January. Selected full-proposal applicants must provide two years of financial statements; Category A and C applicants must provide independently reviewed or audited statements.
