Got a hardware-store run on your October to-do list? Make it count for your neighbors, too.

All month long, you can round up your purchase at these participating Tempe Paul's Ace Hardware locations:

929 E Broadway Rd
1153 W Broadway Rd

Those extra cents might seem small, but together, they help TCAA provide essential resources and support to Tempe neighbors who need a little extra help.

So grab the paint, fix that leaky faucet, tackle the weekend project, and when you check out, just round up for TCAA.

It’s an easy way to shop local, give local, and make a difference right here in our community.

A big thank-you to our friends at Paul's Ace Hardware for helping make it possible!

September is Hunger Action Month, a time to recognize the millions of people who experience food insecurity and consider how we can help build a community where everyone has reliable access to food.

For many of our neighbors, food insecurity isn't limited to one season. At TCAA, our Food Pantry is here year-round to help Tempe residents access the food they need for themselves and their families.

As we move toward the holiday season and beyond, we're committed to making sure our neighbors have one less thing to worry about: where their next meal will come from.

Together, we can help keep our community nourished all year long.

Our neighbors come to TCAA for many reasons. Sometimes it’s because they need food. Sometimes they’re struggling to keep up with housing costs. Sometimes they need support with their health or a path toward greater financial stability.

Whatever the need, we believe people deserve support that looks at the whole picture.

That’s why TCAA’s work focuses on four interconnected areas:

🍎 Food Security
🏠 Housing Stability
💗 Health & Well-Being
🌱 Economic Mobility

Together, these areas reflect the many factors that shape a person’s ability to build a healthy, purposeful life.

We’re proud to be here for our neighbors through all of it.

Why does charitable giving matter?

Because giving is about more than donating money. It’s a way to invest in the people and causes that matter to you and help build a stronger community.

Your generosity can help provide essentials like food and shelter. It can also turn your personal values into meaningful action, no matter what you're passionate about.

When it comes to giving, there are many strategies to consider.

Join us for DAFs, Drafts & More on September 24 to learn more about charitable giving strategies from local financial professionals. You’ll have the chance to learn, ask questions, and connect in a relaxed setting.

🩵Checking on a neighbor and asking if they need anything.
🥫 Volunteering to help feed local families.
💧 Hosting a water drive for a local nonprofit.
☕ Inviting a friend to grab coffee and catch up.

No matter how you choose to show up, you're helping create a stronger, more connected community.
