Individuals passionate about our work are our largest supporters and vital to our ability to continue to operate critical programs and services to help the homeless end their homeless. Through this support, CASS is able to empower nearly 10,000 homeless men, women and children to end their personal struggles with homelessness and re-enter the community…working, succeeding, thriving and giving back.

Here are some ways you can support CASS’ work to end homelessness in Arizona.

Memorial or Tribute

Your gift in memory or in honor of a special loved one, friend, or occasion is not only a thoughtful way to pay tribute, but a wonderful way to help meet the needs of the homeless in our community.

A gift may be given in lieu of flowers for a deceased loved one, or to honor special anniversaries, weddings, birthdays, graduations, and the like.

When you give a gift or memorial to honor a loved one, a card will be sent to the designated family or individual telling them of your gift.
If you would like to donate or give through the mail, please mail your memorial or tribute to:

Central Arizona Shelter Services
230 S. 12th Avenue
Phoenix, AZ  85007

Memo:  Please indicate the name of the recipient and if this is a memorial or tribute.
Note: Please make all checks payable to Central Arizona Shelter Services.

Matching Gifts

When an employer matches their employees’ financial contributions, your support is doubled. Some companies also make monetary donations to match their employees’ volunteer service.

Please contact your company to learn if you are eligible to participate in a matching program and be sure to inform your employer of CASS’ Tax ID number: 86-0500753.

United Way Campaign

In partnership with the Valley of the Sun United Way, CASS benefits from Valley of the Sun United Way Corporate Giving Campaigns.

By simply choosing the Hunger and Homelessness Giving Priority, your gift will go directly to support vital CASS programs that empower homeless men, women and children in our community to end their homelessness.

Please visit the Valley of the Sun United Way’s website for more information www.vsuw.org

To directly write in  a contribution to CASS on your United Way giving form, please use CASS’ United Way identification number 1416.

Planned Giving

With thoughtful estate planning, your legacy can provide life-saving assistance to homeless individuals and families while offering substantial financial benefits for you and your family.

You can make your gift to our general fund which allows CASS flexibility in applying the gift where it will have the greatest impact, now and in coming years. Or you can target your planned gift to any program or location.

Your planned gift to CASS may:

  • Return substantial tax benefits
  • Potentially increase your income
  • Provide a way of fulfilling your personal and financial goals.

Gifts of life insurance, retirement plan assets, real estate, and the use of other forms of charitable trusts, such as a Charitable Remainder Trust, represent additional ways to make a planned gift to CASS.

Your tax advisor or financial planner can advise you how leaving a gift to CASS through your will or estate affects your personal financial situation.
