DECEMBER 15, 2025:   On behalf of the AVHOFS Board of Directors, we are pleased to announce the eleven organizations who received funding through the Society’s new Our Success is Your Success Support Program, as shown below. Each of these organizations provides services, programs, or assistance to Arizona veterans, military servicemembers, and their families. The Society is proud to support their missions and further their impact in communities statewide.

The next Our Success is Your Success Support Program application window will be open from April 1 – June 30, 2026.  See below for more information!

Effective July 2025, the “Our Success is Your Success” program has been established by the Arizona Veterans Hall of Fame Society (AVHOFS). In keeping with the Society’s mission to “undertake charitable and other projects at the state and local levels and to work with Veterans’ Organizations in the attainment of the Society’s objectives”, this program will provide support to selected organizations who provide services, programs, or assistance to Arizona veterans, military servicemembers, as well as their families and survivors. Applications will not be accepted from individuals seeking assistance. Instead, the Society will award funds to Veteran Service Organizations and other established organizations to support their veteran/military focused programs or projects that the Society deems appropriate for funding.

The AVHOFS Project/Program Request Form must be completed and submitted in accordance with the cycle deadline(s) shown below. The application should include justification for the amount of funding requested and should be as detailed as possible. Funds will be awarded by the Society based on demonstrated need and the information provided in the application and will be subject to the Society’s established annual funding cap. It is expected that multiple applications will be funded during each cycle with the maximum of $10,000 awarded to any program/project request.
