AZ Kidz Experience Presents $40,000 to Phoenix Children’s Hospital

August 21, 2026

On Friday, August 21, 2026, Shannon Monahan, Vice President of AZ Kidz Experience, presented a check for $40,000 to Phoenix Children’s Hospital during a check presentation ceremony held in conjunction with the hospital’s annual Give-A-Thon and Champion of Hope recognition.

The funds represent proceeds generated by AZ Kidz Experience’s annual Bouse Off-Road Jamboree, held in January 2026 at Bouse Community Park in Bouse, Arizona. The gift supports Phoenix Children’s Hope Fund, including the purchase of medical equipment for patients.

From the Desert to the Hospital

Each year, the AZ Kidz Bouse Off-Road Jamboree brings together the off-road and outdoor community for a weekend of family activities, live music, raffles, and fellowship—all in support of children receiving care at Phoenix Children’s. The January 2026 event continued that tradition, raising funds that were presented during Give-A-Thon week.

The Hope Fund allows Phoenix Children’s to respond to urgent needs, including state-of-the-art equipment and technology, cutting-edge research, innovative programs, and family-centered services. Champion of Hope recognition highlights the community partners who help make that work possible.

Our Dual Mission

AZ Kidz Experience is a nonprofit organization driven by passion, community, and a shared love for the great outdoors. Our mission is to support Phoenix Children’s Hospital by raising funds and creating unforgettable experiences for the children receiving care there.

In addition to financial contributions, we organize family engagement events that give children the opportunity to ride in a UTV and explore the outdoors—creating lasting memories and offering the healing power of nature and adventure.

Collectively, AZ Kidz Experience has raised over $650,000 in support of Phoenix Children’s. Every dollar and every adventure contributes to both critical hospital needs and moments of joy for the children and families we serve.

“It is an honor to present this gift on behalf of AZ Kidz Experience and the generous supporters who make our work possible,” said Shannon Monahan, Vice President. “The funds raised at our Bouse event will help purchase the medical equipment these courageous kids need. The off-road community continues to step up, and together we are making a real difference.”
