Sparklight awards $250,000 annually through its Charitable Giving Fund
The Charitable Giving Fund includes two grant cycles each year, with $125,000 awarded to nonprofits in the spring and $125,000 in the fall. Since its inception in 2020, the program has awarded more than $1.3 million in grants to more than 300 nonprofits.
Previous recipients include Southeastern Arizona Community Unique Services (SEACUS), which received a $7,500 grant to provide nutritious meals and wellness checks to homebound seniors and adults with disabilities.
“For many of our clients, a meal delivery is more than food — it’s a lifeline that reduces isolation and provides reassurance that someone cares,” said Stephanie Nabor, SEACUS Executive Director. “This grant reflects Sparklight’s commitment to the well-being of our community and those who need it most.”

Sparklight focuses its charitable giving on three priority areas where the need is significant and the impact is lasting:
