Welcome
to Connections!
Dear Arizona Connections Readers,
Yesterday the Trust made its first round of 2011 grant awards to 22 Arizona nonprofit organizations totaling $1.84 million. Organizations providing basic needs and services to families and individuals severely impacted by the economic recession remained a priority. For the third consecutive year, the Trust is participating in the Homelessness and Hunger Funders Collaborative, managed by the Valley of the Sun United Way, to provide operating support grants to 15 Phoenix social service agencies on the front line of helping families in crisis.
With the March 1 application deadline now passed, the Nina Scholars program staff and school advisory boards are gearing up to select the 11th cohort of students for the 2011-2012 academic year as well as prepare for the graduations of an estimated 30 Arizona Nina Scholars this May. We are pleased that the 66 percent graduation and persistence rate of Nina Scholars remains far above the combined averages for the overall student populations of the four participating community colleges and universities in Arizona and Indiana.
Next month, the Trust will again publish its annual report via the Internet. Watch for the Connections article announcing its availability.
Thanks for your ongoing interest in the Trust's programs and grants. We always welcome questions and comments. |
