The Nina Mason Pulliam Charitable Trust has awarded Keys to Change, formerly known as Human Services Campus, Inc., a three-year, $2.25 million grant to support the “flex” fund for homeless prevention and for general operating needs.
The Trust seeks to help people in need, especially women, children, and families; to protect animals and nature; and to enrich community life in the Valley, according to a press release.
The “flex” fund, managed by Keys to Change, is available to partner organizations across the Valley to help people at risk of housing instability remain housed.
A multi-year contract with Maricopa County for flexible prevention funds assisted more than 1,490 households.
Grant funding will continue through Jan. 3, 2027.
“Besides providing shelter and wraparound services to people experiencing homelessness, Keys to Change also helps individuals with emergency funding to maintain housing stability,” Gene D’Adamo, Nina Mason Pulliam Charitable Trust president and CEO, stated. “We are committed now more than ever to supporting Keys to Change as they work to find solutions to Arizona’s housing crisis.”
The rebrand resulting in the name changes to Keys to Change and Key Campus followed a yearlong strategic process involving board members, staff and community members.
Keys to Change is located at 204 S. 12th Ave., in Phoenix. Visit www.hsc-az.org.
The Nina Mason Pulliam Charitable Trust is located at 2201 E. Camelback Road, Suite 600B, in Phoenix.
