The Bob Elliott Show Ep. 7 - Don Bourn

Welcome to The Bob Elliott Show—your weekly look at the leaders, organizations, and events shaping Tucson and Southern Arizona. We skip the politics and religion to focus on the people making a tangible impact on our community: who they are, how they lead, and the organizations you should know about.

In the Bird’s Nest Today: Don Bourn

Today, Bob welcomes Don Bourn, founder of Bourn Companies, one of Southern Arizona’s premier real estate development firms. In this installment of our "Oral Histories" series, we go beyond the balance sheet to hear Don’s story in his own words.

In this episode, we explore:

Roots & Foundations: Don’s upbringing and the early influences that shaped his career.

The Heart of Giving: Where his passion for community involvement began and how he selects the organizations he supports.

Community Impact: Navigating the local organizations that provide vital services and how you can utilize Arizona state tax credits to support them.
