Committed to Community

Shoes, clothing and items for formerly unhoused residents are changing lives for the better.

After 65 years in the community, the Assistance League of Tucson became VIVA PIMA! in May of 2025 but the mission of helping people remains the same despite the name change and its independence from the Assistance League. Programs include VIVA PIMA! SHOP, VIVA PIMA! TEENS and others.
