The Power to Thrive

Encompassing all of our core program areas, Community Impact Grants respond to the diverse needs in each of the communities we serve across Arizona. Additional consideration is given to programs that serve under-resourced populations.

This program is funded by APS shareholders and not included in customer rates.

APS Corporate Giving Applications

Please note:
Effective February 1, 2025. APS is transitioning our Community Impact grantees to the new Blackbaud grantee portal to enhance your application experience. This upgrade will enhance the application process and centralize all grant applications for other foundations or grantors using the Blackbaud Grantmaking system to a single account login for non-profit organizations. All applicants will need to create a new Blackbaud login if they do not have one, regardless if you’ve submitted a grant request in the past.

Community Impact Grant Application – This application is for any 501c3 that is wanting to apply for our APS Community Impact Grant funding. We request that if you are asking for funding and trash boxes and/or in-kind printing that you complete this all-inclusive one time per year grant application.

Trash boxes and In-Kind Printing – This application is for any organization that is ONLY asking for in-kind printing and/or trash boxes. Please note that these services are available to groups that meet our Community Giving criteria.

Cities/Towns/Government – This application is for any other organizations who are not a 501c3, but are specifically a City, Town or Government entity.

When to Submit a Request?

Grant requests are open from February 1 until October 1 annually. All applications must be submitted during this time to be considered for funding. All applications are required to be a onetime all-inclusive annual request for an organization and we respectfully ask that requests seeking event sponsorship be submitted at least 90 days prior to the event date. We are committed to reviewing all grant requests within 60 days of submission. Please note all notifications about your grant will come from noreply@yourcause.com. Please add this email address to your safe sender list to receive communications.

How We Evaluate Applications

Nonprofits within our service territories may apply once annually through an online application process. Organizations may request funding for multiple events or projects by submitting an all-inclusive application, which may include requests for in-kind support such as printing and trash boxes. For more information, e-mail CorporateGiving@aps.com.
