2024 Tucson Beefsteak
The Tucson Beefsteak is back!!! Empower Coalition, Inc., a 501(c)(3) organization, is excited to announce the 6th Annual Tucson Beefsteak presented by The Volpe Team at NOVA Home Loans on February 10th, 2024.
This year we are looking forward to an exciting menu with all you can eat beef and other wonderful culinary delights, complimentary local craft beer & champagne, live auction, amazing raffle, entertainment, and so much more in a one of a kind fundraising event.
In our first event, the 2017 Tucson Beefsteak, Empower Coalition was proud to giveaway $60,000 to two Tucson veterans’ organizations: Fort Lowell Chapter 442 of the Military Order of the Purple Heart and Tucson Community Cares. These funds directly contributed to our local veterans’ community and helped with several different initiatives and programs.
In 2018, Empower Coalition donated over $110,000, with funds provided to YMCA Community Military Ball, Tucson Area Marine Moms, Military Order of the Purple Heart, and VeloVets.
In 2019, we shattered our previous efforts by raising over $400,000 and highlighted the event with a video appearance by President George W. Bush. Our featured beneficiary was Southern Arizona Honor Flight, where Empower Coalition was able to donate $75,000 to help their mission. We hope to continue our success in fundraising and awareness for our Tucson veterans. All proceeds raised from the Tucson Beefsteak will benefit local veteran’s organizations.
The 2023 Tucson Beefsteak, our most successful Beefsteak event yet, raised over $660,000! Those funds were donated to six different charitable organizations in southern Arizona that support veterans and military families.
Empower Coalition is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that was started in 2016. Our mission is to improve lives in the greater Tucson community by empowering charitable organizations with resources necessary to carrying out their missions. In just four years, we have raised over $2,350,000 to benefit local veteran’s organizations.
