Aris Foundation

Aris Foundation Aris Foundation is a 100% volunteer-run 501(c)3 dedicated to caring for the homeless. We provide food, clothing and hygiene items.

Aris Foundation is a nonprofit organization that was originally established to care for homeless young adults within the East Valley. While that remains our focus, we have expanded our mission to include all individuals, homeless or housed, who need care. Mostly, we provide resources and a connection to loving volunteers who care.

With the impending heat coming to the Valley, several Tempe churches have stepped us as cooling centers to keep our unhoused community alive! (So grateful to them.) These are self-funded cooling centers, so Aris is there to help.

We have signed up to provide 50 snack packs per day over the summer and we need your help! If you’re able, purchase some snacks off our Amazon Wish List. We have multiple groups signed up to put them all together!

As always, thank you for being the BEST supporters ever!

The weather was GORGEOUS tonight and we all took a moment to appreciate the last cool night before summer descends. Summer is both uncomfortable and deadly for those we serve and we are incredibly grateful to University Presbyterian Church for hosting a cooling center (along with two other churches in Tempe). They will literally be saving lives!

So grateful to the Islamic Community Center for hosting dinner tonight. So many people left with full bellies and a happy heart!

Being a part of an outreach team is not just about homeless outreach…. It is sorting, organizing, pick-ups, drop-offs, meetings…. and sometimes it is painting an alley wall on a Saturday morning!

We love University Presbyterian Church and are thrilled when we get to help them keep this neighborhood beautiful!
