WaFd Bank Arizona: Through its WaFd Bank Foundation, WaFd Bank Arizona has donated $40,000 to the Primavera Foundation in recent weeks to help continue critical operations amid COVID-19. Since 1983, the Primavera Foundation has provided tangible pathways out of poverty through safe, affordable housing, workforce development and neighborhood revitalization. Each year, its programs impact more than 8,200 individuals and families across Southern Arizona.
