Corte Bella Vets

Supporting Veterans in Arizona

About Corte Bella Vets

The Corte Bella Vets is a nonprofit veterans organization located in the Corte Bella community of Sun City West, Arizona. Our mission is to honor veterans, support veteran causes, and provide direct assistance to veterans in need, with a strong emphasis on local impact and responsible stewardship of donated funds.

We meet at 4:00 p.m. on the first Thursday of each month. Business meetings are held in January, April, September, and November, during which we follow our bylaws, conduct official organizational business, and provide educational programs focused on veteran issues and community awareness. During the remaining months, we host social gatherings that strengthen camaraderie, encourage the sharing of personal stories, and foster mutual support among veterans and supporters.

Honoring Veterans and National Holidays

Throughout the year, Corte Bella Vets proudly raise American flags around the Corte Bella Circle in recognition of our nation’s military heritage and to honor veterans on key national holidays, including:

  • Presidents’ Day
  • Armed Forces Day
  • Memorial Day
  • Flag Day
  • Independence Day
  • Labor Day
  • Patriot Day
  • Veterans Day
  • Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day
  • Other days as proclaimed by the President of the United States and state holidays

These displays serve as a visible reminder of service, sacrifice, and patriotism within our community.

Fundraising and Veteran Support Programs

Corte Bella Vets raises funds through an annual Golf Tournament and a Veterans Day Dinner Dance. Proceeds from these events directly support Arizona-based veteran charities, individual veterans facing hardship, and nonprofit organizations with minimal overhead to ensure maximum impact.

Angel Tree Program for Veterans

Each November and December, Corte Bella Vets provides logistical support for the Angel Tree Program in partnership with Sundome Plaza Merchants. Through this program, we collect, wrap, and distribute gifts tailored to veteran needs. Gifts are delivered to veteran homes, homeless shelters, and hospitals, ensuring veterans are remembered and supported during the holiday season.

Direct Assistance to Veterans in Need

Corte Bella Vets is recognized by local Veterans Administration counselors as a trusted, go-to nonprofit for immediate assistance. We provide timely financial support to vetted veterans who encounter unexpected expenses, offering a practical “hand up” during difficult moments.

To date, the Corte Bella Vets has provided over $550,000 in support of:

  • Veteran charities
  • Individual veterans in need
  • Nonprofit organizations with low administrative overhead

Our focus is on local impact, transparency, and meaningful results.
