Last year, CoBiz Financial raised $50,000 for Child Crisis Arizona as part of Biz Bash Arizona. This year, our agency is thrilled to once again be part of Biz Bash and hopeful to raise even more funds to support our vision of safe kids and strong families in the community. The event is set for Sept. 29 at The Venue Scottsdale starring Aaron Neville.
“We are so honored to work with members of the CoBiz Financial team,” says Torrie Taj CEO of Child Crisis Arizona, “this event supports the needs of Arizona’s children and will allow us to continue our mission at Child Crisis Arizona of ensuring the safety of children and strengthening of families. This year, we also welcome a new co-beneficiary, A New Leaf which holds special meaning for me, having worked with them for more than 23 years.”
Since its 2001 inception in Colorado, the CoBiz Financial Biz Bash has distributed millions of dollars to local nonprofit organizations in both Arizona and Colorado. Each year, Arizona’s Biz Bash proceeds benefits one, child-focused organization; past recipients include Raising Special Kids, Hope Kids, Ryan House, Chrysalis and ICAN.
Make sure to mark your calendars for this year’s Biz Bash and join us for an unforgettable night of entertainment, food, and fun as R & B great Aaron Neville will take the stage at The Venue Scottsdale on Sept. 29.
Neville has had four Platinum-certified albums and four Top 10 hits, including three Number Ones. A New Orleans native, Neville has branded his career as an influential American R & B singer and musician, whose early days date back to a musical quad with his brothers Art, Charles and Cyril. Neville will be joined by a talented, R & B, funk, jazz and be-bop quintet also featuring his brother, Charles Neville, saxophone extraordinaire.
