Desert Doves

Desert Doves is a non-profit organization of Returned Peace Corps Volunteers. We are based in Tucson, AZ though our membership is open to those located throughout southern Arizona. The Desert Doves are committed to supporting community development projects in both Arizona and abroad. Since 2011, the Desert Doves have donated more than $42,599 in support of Peace Corps Partnership Projects around the world. Project funds are raised through a combination of membership dues, donated service hours, and financial donations.
