100 Club of Arizona

About 100 Club of Arizona

The 100 Club of Arizona centers its giving on Arizona public safety personnel, their families, and survivors affected by line-of-duty injury or death. That focus shows up across direct financial aid, wellness resources, training, scholarships, and equipment support, with a clear emphasis on first responders and the departments that serve them. The foundation’s recent grants also show a strong agency-facing track: public safety departments and fire districts receive safety equipment stipends that help them purchase approved gear and related training. Among the larger recent awards, the club gave $96,121 to AZ Doc in Phoenix for safety equipment stipends and $88,000 to the Arizona Department of Public Safety in Phoenix for the same purpose. Other sizable grants went to Tubac Fire District, Yavapai County Sheriffs Office, and Tempe Fire & Medical. Those awards point to a funder that supports both statewide agencies and local departments. Its program list shows support for emergency response workers at multiple stages: crisis assistance after death or injury, wellness interventions for first responders, sleep-related support for firefighters, and scholarships for Arizona recipients. The result is a grantmaker that combines immediate relief with longer-term support for safety, health, and education.

What 100 Club of Arizona Funds

Public safety support is the foundation’s clearest theme. It awarded $52,673 to Yavapai County Sheriffs Office and $44,000 to Tempe Fire & Medical, both listed as safety equipment stipends, indicating a strong interest in agency-level protection and gear. Wellness and behavioral health are another major line of work. The Peer 100 Assistance program provides individual modalities funding for first responders, including tools such as Alpha-Stim, BrainTap, sleep study devices, and light therapy. The Peer 100 Training Support program funds wellness and resiliency training for departments across Arizona, with topics that include peer support, sleep deprivation, stress management, mindfulness, and suicide prevention. The club also supports crisis-response services for families and survivors through HEREOS, which coordinates resources for officers, firefighters, and families facing terminal illness, loss of a spouse or child, or other life-altering events. Education appears through the scholarship program, which lists grants of $5,000 to $10,000.
