About Fhr Cares
Fhr Cares Inc centers its grantmaking on affordable housing and financial well-being in Pima County, with a local model built to support organizations working directly on community improvement. The fund was established in 2015 as the FHR Cares Community Investment Fund, alongside Family Housing Resources, Inc., and it has continued to back Tucson- and Pima County-based nonprofits and community partners. Recent grants show a clear pattern of support for housing stability and related community needs, including repeated funding for Angel Charity for Children and Family Housing Resources, both in Tucson. The foundation also awards general operating support, which indicates that it does not limit its grants to project-only funding. Its recent activity includes larger awards alongside mid-sized and smaller grants, with recipients ranging from housing-focused organizations to groups serving youth and households affected by COVID-19. Leadership is listed under Meghan Heddings, and the foundation’s geographic scope is local, with all recent grants going to Arizona recipients.
What Fhr Cares Funds
Affordable housing is a central theme in the grant record. Fhr Cares Inc gave $11,000 in 2024 and $10,000 in 2023 to Southern Arizona Land Trust for housing support, showing direct backing for housing-related work. It also funded housing-stability efforts through the FHR Cares Community Investment Fund and the FHR Cares Grant Program, both focused on Tucson and Pima County. Financial well-being appears alongside housing in the fund’s stated priorities. The foundation’s 2023 and 2024 grants to University of Arizona Innovation for Justic, both at $35,000, were tagged for COVID 19 response, tying its grantmaking to pandemic-era support. Community investment also includes support for Youth on Their Own at $25,000 in 2024, indicating attention to residents facing instability and broader community service needs.
