Our Mission
Help people at or below the poverty level in the state of Arizona who are in need of food, clothing, shelter improvement, and other necessities to assist in their day to day living.
The Tierra Antigua Hope Foundation was established in 2014 with the goal of giving back to the community that has given so much to us. Our passion for giving back is fueled by Founder Kim Clifton who says it best; “It’s so important, especially for local business owners, to give back. If it weren’t for this community, we would have nothing.”
Tierra Antigua REALTORS® are at the forefront of spreading hope throughout Southern Arizona. Their belief in our mission has brought them to commit their personal time, belongings, and even consistently choosing to contribute a portion of their commissions to the foundation.
We are proud to Live Local Give Local!

2023 Giving in Action
In 2023 we have successfully completed the following outreach projects in Tucson and Southern Arizona.
We have fed over 1400 meals at “The Lot” which is a site that provides meals to our homeless and impoverished members of our community.
We have stocked the food pantry at Unleashed Christian Church which has provided 725 people with food who would otherwise go without.
50 backpacks were given out to youth in our community who fall below the poverty line. We still have 250 left to distribute.
The Sierra Vista Tierra Antigua Agents volunteered with our Hope Board Members and supplied Good Neighbor Alliance with three months of shower supplies to their daily visitors who are homeless and in need.
Hope foundation partners with the Care Portal here in Tucson who provide beds/furniture to children transitioning into foster situations who do not have any items of their own. This year alone we have been able to help 64 children in these situations. We have filled the Hope Foundation trailer with beds, bedding, dressers and more so when we are called upon we can supply these to children in need during a very difficult transition in their lives.
These are just a few of the outreach programs that we have completed and the end of the year is the busiest time of year for Tierra Antigua Hope Foundation. In November we will provide a Thanksgiving meal to those who do not have a place to go for a warm Thanksgiving Meal. In December, the Tierra Antigua Hope Foundation hosts one of our biggest events providing The Arizona Young Adult Program with a holiday party which provides them with housewares, food, clothing, a holiday meal and a gathering they all look forward to each year!
As you can see above, The Tierra Antigua Hope Foundation gives back to our community all year long! Thank you for your continued support so we can continue these efforts in the upcoming months and years ahead!
