    Arizona Community FoundationPhoenix AZ (March 15, 2020) – The Arizona Community Foundation announced today that it has established a community response fund to support Arizona nonprofit organizations as they assist in responding to the spread of COVID-19 across the state.

    In coordination with public officials and healthcare experts leading the response to this health crisis, along with community organizations and other funding partners, ACF is working to shape philanthropy’s response to local needs. ACF will seed the Arizona COVID-19 Community Response Fund with a $100,000 contribution from its discretionary funds. One hundred percent of contributions to this fund will be distributed to nonprofit organizations swiftly as needs arise. ACF has intentionally established this fund with flexibility in mind to ensure that these resources may support communities as conditions, circumstances, and needs change throughout this crisis.

    “The community response fund will support the health and well-being of communities and families across Arizona most directly affected by the COVID-19 virus,” said Steve Seleznow, ACF President & CEO. “While we remain hopeful that preventative measures will minimize the spread of the outbreak in our state, the time to act is now.” 

    Those who wish to contribute to the Arizona COVID-19 Community Response Fund may do so at azfoundation.org/covid19.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
