There Space | 1518 E Van Buren St, Phoenix, 85006


Prime Society is a "fun, energetic, and soulful" band based right here in Phoenix, AZ. We met them last year as one of our biggest contributors to Thirst Aid, so this year we're taking the partnership to the next level with a first-of-its-kind benefit concert event featuring local talent, local food, and local impact!


Proceeds benefit the Thirst Aid Water Drive and heat relief efforts at Key Campus. Let's finish this summer strong, and remember that high temperatures still spike in Phoenix well into October!


Details to come! RSVP to receive updates and important event information.

Heat Relief Opportunities

  • Host a "Sunbrella" Drive in your Community


Inspired by Keys to Change Street Outreach team, we're on a mission to collect and hand out umbrellas as part of our emergency heat relief efforts.


Andrew from Street Outreach is out there braving the heat daily, and shares that "shaded pavement can be up to 60 degrees cooler than unshaded, preventing contact burns and reducing the risk of heat related illnesses and death."


A simple umbrella can save a life!

Schedule a donation dropoff
  • Volunteer with your group at Key Campus


Key Campus is a great place to make a difference. Rally your coworkers, congregation, or community group to join hydration efforts at Key Campus.


Planning a group opportunity helps keep our unhoused clients hydrated while our front-line staff focus on solutions to end their homelessness.
