Bell Bank and our Arizona banking teams are excited to be partnering with Thunderbird Charities and the WM Phoenix Open to pay it forward!

As a Birdies for Charity corporate sponsor, Bell donated $25,000 in total to 4 qualifying nonprofits, based on the number of birdies made by PGA TOUR golfers during the tournament. Our donation, plus a generous match provided by Thunderbirds Charities, helped raise additional funds to benefit these charities and support local Arizona communities. Thunderbirds Charities has also just become an additional corporate sponsor of the upcoming Pay It Forward Collegiate golf tourney presented by Bell Bank in March.

Our selected Birdies for Charity nonprofits were:

• Make-a-Wish Arizona – life-changing wishes for kids with critical illnesses 
• Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central & Northern Arizona – a home away from home for families of sick children 
• New Pathways for Youth – transforming the lives of youth through mentoring 
• St. Vincent de Paul Phoenix – compassionate help and crucial services for people in need

Thanks to these nonprofits for your important work in our communities!
