The OneAZ Community Foundation is built on five pillars of support which guide the charitable giving. These areas of focus help build a strong foundation for Arizona’s economic stability.

  • Children’s Health
  • Food Banks
  • Financial Education
  • Veterans’ Interests
  • Local Youth Programs

Each time a member uses a OneAZ Credit Union debit card for a purchase, one cent is donated to the foundation to fund local initiatives. In 2020, OneAZ members gave over $200,000 to the Foundation with over 20 million debit card swipes.
