Description2022 City of Tempe Diversity Award Winner The AGC Collector's Club of Arizona vision statement is to "share the joy of collecting African American collectibles as well as other collectible items." As a small organization, the same committed members do everything to make sure that others' programs, services and goods, which give back to the community, are funded and supported. The organization highlighted the topics of hunger and homelessness for the 2021 Club Year. In response to the on-going pandemic, the organization reached out to help those unhoused and confronting hunger by supporting Maggie's Place for pregnant moms and their babies located in Tempe. They also supported the Tempe Corps of the Salvation Army to help provide food and other necessary items for people in Tempe. The club has also continued to support the food pantry of the Tempe Community Action Agency, Black History Month and Juneteenth events. Since the founding of the AGC Collector's Club of Arizona in 1995, the organization helps children, seniors, single parents, and adults without regard to gender, race, religion, or sexual orientation.Status
