Inaugural Pickleball Tournament raises nearly $20,000 for Summer Essential Donations
Making an impact - one serve at a time!
What an incredible day of Pickleball for a Purpose! Thanks to our amazing community partners, we raised close to $20,000 to help our unhoused neighbors beat the Arizona heat. These funds will help provide critical heat-relief items including water, umbrellas, lip balm, cooling towels, pet booties, and other summer essentials that can make a meaningful difference during our hottest months and beyond.
It was a great day on the courts. 33 teams picked up their paddles for a great cause. Homeaid Phoenix is incredibly grateful to everyone who played, sponsored, volunteered, donated, cheered, and helped make this event such a success. Because of our community’s generosity, we can provide comfort, relief, and dignity to neighbors who need it most.
