COMMUNITY
Desert Financial is passionate about helping others, and our team members are, too! We offer hundreds of ways for our employees to give back throughout the year.

Featured Community Event
United Food Bank Turkey Drive
Through our Random Acts of Kindness program, Desert Financial supported food drive efforts across Arizona to ensure community members had food on their tables this Thanksgiving. We partnered with United Food Bank, providing $50,000 to match turkey donations during their drive. Our team members assisted in both the collection and distribution of turkeys, including handing out food boxes to 1,847 households on November 21, serving 8,467 individuals with that distribution alone. Households received a turkey, a stuffing kit, potatoes and other basic essentials like eggs.

Featured Random Act of Kindness
Thanksgiving Giving
We contributed $125,000 to turkey drives across Arizona: $50,000 to match United Food Bank’s Turkey Tuesday giving; $50,000 to match the Flagstaff Family Food Center during its Stuff the Bus event; and $12,500 each to the Prescott Valley and the Prescott Chambers of Commerce to match both of their Flying High Turkey Drives for the Yavapai County Food Bank.

We partnered with ASU's Student Alumni Association in their last Gold Patrol initiative before finals week! We handed out lots of swag to students wearing gold, including Finals Week Survival Kits with an iPad, Starbucks gift cards, office supplies, snacks and sleeping masks.

Prescott Housing Solutions is a nonprofit that works to provide affordable housing in northern Arizona. We provided the organization with essential household items to help their shelter residents feel more comfortable.

We purchased 50 pairs of shoes for students at Andersen Junior High School in Chandler after we learned that many of them had not had a new pair of shoes in many years. We partnered with the school's guidance counselor, who is also a Desert Financial member, to complete the surprise!
