Overview

Mission

Community health charities improves the lives of people in Arizona by uniting caring donors in the workplace with the most trusted health charities.

What it reported doing in 2014

Chronic or life-threatening illness touches more than 125 millionamericans. One in four members of the national workforce has a family member suffering from a condition supported by one of our member agencies. This is why community health charities of Arizona and its member health agencies are dedicated to alleviating suffering and finding cures by conducting workplace giving campaigns.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 99% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The program-spending lines do not add up, so the filing cannot show reliably whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
