DRIVE Electric Arizona

Support a Cleaner, Healthier Arizona – Help Drive the Future on Arizona Gives Day

Every great movement starts with people who care. At DRIVE Electric Arizona, we're bringing together enthusiastic volunteers, committed stakeholders, and forward-thinking funders to create something extraordinary – a professional, welcoming community that's accelerating Arizona's transition to electric vehicles through the power of shared knowledge and collective action.

DRIVE Electric Arizona is a 100% volunteer-led nonprofit dedicated to accelerating the adoption of electric vehicles through education, advocacy, and community engagement.

Transportation is the #1 source of carbon emissions in Arizona—and we believe everyone deserves clean air, lower costs, and access to the future of mobility.

DRIVE Electric Arizona helps preserve our fragile Sonoran Desert Preserves by accelerating the adoption of zero-emission electric vehicles across the state. By reducing tailpipe pollution, we help lower ground-level ozone and greenhouse gas emissions that threaten the health of our desert ecosystems and communities. Through public education, policy advocacy, and community-driven EV events, we’re building a cleaner, quieter, and more sustainable transportation future that protects the unique biodiversity and natural beauty of the Sonoran Desert.

TESTIMONIALS

Chris from Sedona says: "After coming to a Ride and Drive in 2024, I purchased an EV. When the opportunity arose, I took it to the Sedona Ride & Drive to allow others to experience what I had. It was encouraging to see a good turnout in Sedona of people who were in a similar situation to mine a year earlier, wanting to experience an EV and hear from owners first-hand."

Jonathan Overly, Administrator for the DRIVE Electric USA Initiative says: "Your team’s efforts and actions during the first year of the DEUSA2 project have been exemplary. From developing your executive team and thorough public-facing website, a plan for Drive Electric AZ, and events that are all over AZ that have reached divergent audiences, your work has been a model for others to follow."
