IMPACT Tucson was held at Palo Verde High School on Saturday, July 29, 2023, and featured renowned guest speaker Dr. Adolph Brown.
- Numerous community partners came together to engage kids in a day of games, food, and exciting activities. Thank you to all our sponsors, including the Goritz family who donated $12,000-worth of new clothes, and volunteers that helped make this special day possible.
This wonderful, annual event also offered free backpacks, haircuts and more to help families! Thank you to all our Tucson Unified employees who worked the event and helped to make sure our families have the best start to the school year.
