Build context.  Get involved.  Build a legacy.

BUILD CONTEXT

For over 50 years, we have worked hard to understand Miami and what makes us tick, understanding the evolving needs of our community and responding to drive impactful change. We have learned that the passion to improve the place we call home rests in every Miamian. We know Miamians are engaged, generous, and invested in their future.

This is an incredibly diverse city with a rich history. Context is key. We encourage you to read local – subscribe to The New Tropic. The Miami Herald. The Plaintain. Dive in with our friends at HistoryMiami, who have thoughtfully protected and shared generations of Miami stories. Visit Matheson Hammock Park and ride the Underline. Check out these neighborhood guides (The New Tropic, Miami and Beaches, Where Traveler). Grab a show and enjoy homegrown Miami creativity with Miami New Drama, Nu Deco Ensemble, and Disapora Vibes Cultural Arts Incubator. We also love Refresh’s Guide to Miami – it’s a great place to start.

PARTNER

This is a city fueled by collaboration. Our work at The Miami Foundation is all about bringing people together to solve issues more boldly in partnership than they could alone.

The Foundation hosts a database of nonprofits, categorized by issue area, that is always available to you as a resource if you want to explore. You can access the database by visiting GiveMiamiDay.org to dive into any issue area that you care about. And if you are looking to join in some of the major efforts happening now related to climate resilience, racial equity, digital access, workforce opportunities, arts inclusivity or more, reach out. We want to get you involved.

GIVE

We are proud to elevate the stories of over 800+ local nonprofits. If you would like to explore and give directly, please visit our nonprofit database at GiveMiamiDay.org/nonprofits.

If you would like to streamline your philanthropy, the Foundation is a one-stop shop for all things giving. Whether you want to give personally or wish to have your company involved, the Foundation has custom, philanthropic funds that can be created to streamline all your giving. These tax advantageous options provide greater flexibility than traditional giving vehicles and our team is happy to source nonprofit recommendations based on the issues that matter most to you.

Additionally, we can work with your family or company to create a clear and effective giving strategy and provide you with the tools to create a program that aligns with your philanthropic goals.
