Seeds of Hope is a non-profit charity that promotes opportunities to improve lives through relationships and community development. We help those in need with food and clothing and have been one of the primary social service providers in the Casa Grande area since 1993.
We appreciate the generous support of our community and the partnerships we have formed with local businesses, organizations, churches and agencies, that provide volunteers and other resources to help us fulfill our mission. While our partnerships are crucial to our cause, our true strength relies on our volunteers. We could not do what we do without the volunteers that lift up our entire community.

Hi I’m Toni Nunez. I was raised in Casa Grande. In 7th grade I became a Peer Leader for Seeds of Hope. I grew up, had my family and came back to Seeds of Hope when my five kids were little. I was hired in July of 2014 as the Hot Lunch Coordinator. I am now the Programs Manger. My kids were raised through the Program and are all basically grown now. I have been with my husband Jose for 20 years and we have one granddaughter. I like to spend time with my family having cook outs. I love being a soccer mom to our youngest daughter. Phoenix Suns are my favorite team. And I only root for Arizona teams! I enjoy meeting people! I want to know about you and your story. We might have something in common. I like to give and serve the Lord.
Hi I’m Alicia Lozano. I was originally born and raised in Ventura, California. I married my husband in 1974, almost 50 years! We have 3 grown sons. I have traveled many years with my husband, David being in the Air Force, Germany, England, France Switzerland, Holland, BUT Zaragoza, Spain is one of my favorites. Where we went to a Spanish Assembly of God Christian Church. We lived in Sacramento, CA., where our boys graduated. That’s where David retired. Fast forward to 2021 we moved to Toltec. We found our Church Fountains of Living Water where I became a volunteer to Seeds of Hope Hot Lunch. I became the Hot Lunch Coordinator in January of 2023. I am passionate about our mission to improve lives and work toward "Spreading the Love of Christ"
Hi! I’m Karla Rascon, I have lived in Casa Grande my entire life and love it! I’m happily engaged and have a 1-year-old and expecting another. I love to try different foods and love spending quality time with friends and family. You can catch me in line at Starbucks getting my pink drink. I’ve been a part of Seeds of Hope for over 15 years. I first started participating as a student, slowly worked my way up in middle school and high school as a peer leader. Then as the Coordinator Assistant, currently I am the MACC Coordinator. I love being a part of Seeds of Hope, a great organization. I enjoy meeting such great people and serving my community.
