Arizona’s nonprofit sector spans from tiny groups supporting local swim clubs to giant healthcare organizations with billions of dollars in annual revenue.

As of February 2, 2024, the IRS listed 28,379 organizations in Arizona as tax exempt. In addition to Arizona-based organizations serving Arizona needs, organizations such as the Make-A-Wish Foundation, which serve a national or global population, are also included. Many national organizations also have local chapters in the state that have their own tax-exempt status and are included in the state total. This in-depth report allows you to explore nonprofit organizations by county—including Pima (Southern Arizona)—alongside details like mission focus, revenue brackets, and financial scale.
