Speak Up Stand Up Save A Life
We found that encouraging students to speak up to a trusted adult about depression, suicide, grief, abuse and bullying is the first step toward saving a life. These students have the ability to save each other, we just need to give them (and the trusted adults) the tools and confidence to do it.

Puente Movement
We are a grassroots migrant justice organization based in phoenix, arizona. we develop, educate, and empower migrant communities to protect and defend our families and ourselves in order to enhance the quality of life of our community members. we formed in 2007 in response to the first agreement between police and federal immigration (287g) in arizona. this agreement led to cruel attacks on our community at the hands of maricopa county sheriff joe arpaio. our membership and leadership has always been comprised of those most impacted by anti-immigrant policies and laws: currently and formerly undocumented people, those in mixed-status families, and people of color affected by rampant racial profiling. some of our previous work includes the alto arizona campaign, lifting up the human rights crisis in arizona in the wake of the passage of notorious anti-immigrant law sb1070, and the no papers, no fear ride for justice (undocubus).

Grapevine Giving Foundation
The Grapevine Giving Foundation plays a crucial role in facilitating the launch and growth of groups in the Grapevine network. In order to sustain our efforts in creating new groups, we allocate 50% of your first donation to support our nonprofit organization, the Grapevine Giving Foundation.
This approach ensures that our foundation receives crucial funding while fostering the growth and development of new groups within our network.
Your questions answered
Grapevine is a platform that provides our group with an online home that allows us to donate to a shared pool then collaborate to decide which nonprofits to give the money to. They also provide our group with free virtual event planning and hosting support, donation matching funds, and more!
At Grapevine our mission is to help grow the giving circle movement. In order to do that, we’re working to help launch giving circles in new areas and categories where they don’t exist already. That’s why we’re starting Women for Good | Valley of the Sun. As we develop this group, we’ll identify leaders within the group and help them maintain and grow the group over time.

The time commitment is as little or as much as you’d like. In general though, most members will spend about 5 hours per year participating in the group. This includes nominating and/or just voting on selected nonprofits once per quarter, as well as attending one-hour events each quarter (four per year), some networking events, and other opportunities to connect with other group members. However, there is no requirement to participate in the events. Additionally, we’d love to work with members interested in getting more involved to help lead and grow the group, which would require a few additional hours per quarter or year, depending upon your capacity.
We don’t charge any membership fees, but our payment processor charges a nonprofit discounted credit card fee of 2.2% + 30¢ per donation (3.5% for AmEx). If you’d like, you can leave an optional amount on top of your donation that supports Grapevine’s work.
Anyone who identifies as next-gen professional woman in Phoenix is eligible to join. This can be for any business type, industry, position, or level. All are welcome!
We’ll reach out to you about the status of your membership within one week. If your membership is approved, we’ll send you the information for joining the group and adding your donation.
Bring about real, lasting change
Be a leader who makes a difference in the world!

And you get to do it all by meeting and collaborating with other awesome women across the country.
