Thursday, November 21st is one of the most important days in philanthropy (if not the most) for Miami. It is Give Miami Day. This is your opportunity to support your favorite nonprofits and causes with very little administrative cost to them, the possibility of match, and the likelihood of making gratitude go viral. It really is contagious. Join the revolution and give. Rebecca Fishman Lipsey Lindsey Linzer Maribel Perez Wadsworth David Lawrence Jr. Natalia Zea Mary Snow Virginia Jacko Rumya Sundaram Andrew B.

Key Biscayners, Olga Londoño and Eduardo Fernandez, tragically lost their 15th month old son Edu to a drowning. In the months and years that followed, they channeled their unimaginable grief into building the Edu Foundation. Their hope is to create education and awareness around drowning, so that other families don’t have to know their pain. The KBCF is honored to serve as the fiscal sponsor of the Edu Foundation. On July 9, 2024, the Edu Foundation joined one of the largest funders-collaboration in Miami-Dade County to make Zero Drownings a reality. Thanks to the leadership of Natalia Zea, James Haj, and The Children's Trust of Miami-Dade County. The Zero Drownings Miami-Dade Initiative will provide essential water safety lessons to 20,000 four-year-old children enrolled in public and private early learning centers and Miami-Dade County Public Schools kindergarteners every year (Jose L. Dotres, Ed.D.). Always proud to partner with Rebecca Fishman Lipsey + The Miami Foundation team; Norie del Valle + United Way Miami team; The American Red Cross; @DanielaLevineCava; Patrick Morris + Miami Dade County; Commissioner Keon Hardemon; Templeton Family Foundation; and many more. This what the independent sector does; we make good happen.
THIS is what drives us. Jumping in headfirst into a new initiative. Because it is needed. Because kids. should. not. drown. A community need, then an idea for a meaningful solution, then research, then more learning from another community who is doing something similar well, then joining forces with ride-or-die champions (see: partner in crime Patrick Morris) then a series of strategic and thought-through collective approaches engaging leaders across the board (see: supportive leaders) who then assign some of their best (see: selfless warriors) to get to work to ideate, to create, to break through barriers, to unstick red tape, to break through more barriers, to tap into the natural and abundant generosity of partners (see: good humans and organizations), to transforming a concept into a tangible program, to capturing it all in the four corners of complex contracts, to the community announcement - together promising to do this and do this well. Collaboration is not a buzz word. It is essential, possible, and happening. Thank you to ALL those who by 2026 will work to give 20,000 little kids a fighting chance to survive in the water that surrounds us, every year. SO much more work to do together and I am so grateful for each and every person (see: 60+) who has jumped in - headfirst - on this project. Onward together. #ZeroDrowningsMiamiDade #JoinTheZeroChallenge James Haj Ken Hoffman Imran Ali Garnet Esters Rachel Spector Ximena Nunez Felix Becerra Lindsay Francois Alejandro Aguirre Jorge Ibarra, M.Ed.

Key Biscayne lost an icon today. Rosa de la Cruz was a force of nature. She championed art and community in Miami, helping to put the city on the map internationally. Beyond that, and perhaps most importantly, Rosa created opportunities for hundreds of students in the urban core who wouldn’t otherwise have access to art and culture and travel. She literally opened up a world of possibilities for them. Rosa's legacy will live on for generations
