Give Back on Give Miami Day!

It’s Go Time! Early Giving has officially launched at GiveMiamiDay.org! Now through Thursday at 11:59 p.m., you can support Friends of the Everglades during our most impactful online-giving event of the year: The Miami Foundation’s Give Miami Day.

We invite you to make a contribution to help protect, preserve and restore the only Everglades in the world. You don’t have to live in Miami to participate. Donations between $25 and $10,000 will help Friends of the Everglades qualify for a bonus gift!

Last year, our supporters raised over $14,000 for Friends of the Everglades during the Give Miami Day virtual event. You can support us again this year by checking out our champion pages and making a donation towards their goals!

We encourage you to join us at 6 p.m. on Thursday for our “Power Hour” of giving with bonus prizes and matching opportunities. Visit our profile page on the GiveMiamiDay.org website and help us reach our goal this year for the 10th Anniversary!

Thank you!
