Christmas at BHGH!
Thank you to our generous community for putting smiles on the faces of our scholars and their families this holiday season!
Christmas Stockings
All scholars received an amazing stocking filled with holiday gifts and treats! 56 generous supporters adopted a scholar and shopped for items on their "holiday wish list". It is such a joy to see their faces when they receive these wonderful gifts! THANK YOU!
Christmas Mart
There is no greater joy during the holidays than to give gifts to your loved ones.
Generous donors and organizations collected toys and gifts for our "Christmas Mart", a scholar holiday shopping extravaganza. Scholars shopped for and with the help of some amazing volunteers, festively wrapped gifts for their siblings as well as picked out a special gift for themselves. As the scholars waited for their turn to shop and wrap, volunteers and the Program Team had an amazing array of games and crafts for the scholars to enjoy! THANK YOU!
Merry Christmas! BHGH wishes you abundant joy and health in 2022!

We are grateful for the leadership of the BHGH Board and are honored to introduce you to:
Development Committee Member
Tommy McKone, McKone Strategies
“Boys Hope Girls Hope of Arizona is an organization that brings to light the true potential of young scholars wishing to make a difference and everlasting impact in their communities. No matter the circumstances, every child should have the opportunity to challenge themselves, reach their full potential and achieve their goals and dreams. BHGHAZ makes this a reality and in turn creates a better world for everyone. This organization would not be possible if it wasn’t only for these young leaders but their outstanding parents as well. To be a small part of this impactful organization and walk beside these remarkable kids is a true honor of a lifetime.”
Program Committee Member
Derek Flint, Snell & Wilmer
"When I heard about Boys Hope Girls Hope, I was immediately drawn to its mission. Not only does the organization provide scholars with an excellent education; it also provides the mentorship and resources that are critical to breaking the cycle of generational poverty. And, along the way, the organization instills the importance of giving back to the community. As a board member, I’m grateful for the opportunity to support this mission and help the organization’s driven, brilliant scholars pursue their passions."
