Give Miami Day!

November 16, 2023

As the vibrant city of Miami gears up for the annual philanthropic extravaganza, Give Miami Day, we are excited to announce our ambitious goal of raising $100,000 for the Alliance for Florida’s National Parks. This day of giving is not just about contributing to a noble cause; it’s a chance for every individual to become a catalyst for positive change in our local ecosystems. By participating, you join a community dedicated to preserving and enhancing the natural wonders that make Florida unique.

Your support plays a crucial role in funding essential programs that the Alliance for Florida’s National Parks spearheads. One standout initiative is the Everglades Education program, reaching over 60,000 students annually. This program is the cornerstone of fostering environmental awareness and appreciation among the next generation. Additionally, our efforts extend to the Biscayne Coral Restoration project and beach clean-ups, safeguarding the delicate balance of this marine ecosystem. In the heart of Big Cypress, the Swamp Water and Me program introduces students to the wonders of the swamp, nurturing a sense of responsibility for its preservation. Furthermore, our commitment extends to the Dry Tortugas, where we tirelessly work towards the protection of sea turtles, an integral part of the delicate marine ecosystem.

Beyond the altruistic joy of supporting these programs, there are significant economic benefits tied to the preservation of Florida’s national parks. The Everglades, for instance, attracts millions of tourists annually, drawn by the allure of its unique ecosystem and abundant wildlife. This influx of visitors translates to a substantial boost in the local economy, creating jobs, fostering small businesses, and contributing to the overall prosperity of the region.

As Give Miami Day approaches, we invite you to be a part of this transformative movement. Your contribution not only helps us reach our fundraising goal but also ensures that these invaluable programs continue to thrive, leaving a lasting impact on the environment, education, and the local economy. Together, let’s unleash the power of Give Miami Day to create a better, more sustainable future for Florida’s national parks and the communities they support.
