Are sponsorship opportunities available?
The BOV Care Card program is fortunate to have long-standing corporate sponsors, without which the program would not be the success that it is today.

Who benefits from Care Card?
The Board of Visitors has granted more than $1.8 million to charities in the greater Phoenix area through the Care Card program. The 2012 and 2013 Care Card net proceeds will provide medical, dental and vision care at UMOM New Day Centers, the largest homeless shelter in Arizona. UMOM received $285,000 from Care Card 2012 and The BOV hopes to surpass that amount in 2013!
