SAVE THE WAVE- Campaign #2- Fill-A-Bag
Want to make a difference? Join SAVE THE WAVE in raising $30,000 for Fill-A-Bag!

Fill-A-Bag works with coastal communities to set up FAB stations that hold reusable bags and buckets, inviting folks to turn daily beach strolls into meaningful clean ups.

By giving people gateway access to clean ups, we not only help to protect our Oceans and marine life, but we also become more mindful of our own behaviors and lifestyle choices. Join a clean up near you, or just go out and fill a bag!

Fill-A-Bag exists under the fiscal stewardship of the Key Biscayne Community Foundation, a 501(c)(3) NFP.

If 1,000 people donated just $30 we would reach our goal with this campaign.

This is my 2nd campaign on the road to raise $1,000,000 for NFPs fighting for our Oceans!!

Thank you for supporting, SAVE THE WAVE.

Run & Restore Surfside Lives to be Okay (@Run3ok5)
On June 24th, 2021 at approximately 1:30 in the morning, a twelve-story residential building with 136 units partially collapsed. The search for some residents continues.

The Key Biscayne Community Foundation is partnered alongside The Coral Gables Community Foundation, The Knight Foundation, The Miami Foundation, Miami HEAT, and Miami HEAT Charitable Fund to stand together to build a hardship fund for those impacted through the Support Surfside Fund.

We at Miami's Okayest Run Club would like to encourage our community of runners to contribute to this devastating event. With a $20 incremental donation, we will reciprocate your gratitude and provide a performance Miami's Okayest Run Club T-shirt (white, black or both). Proceeds from these donations will be provided directly from this fund to Key Biscayne Community Foundation, to then designate to those in need as a result of the devastating Surfside building collapse.

Miami's Okayest Run Club is a network of community enthusiasts whom recognize the power of effort and each other. For more than a year now we have organized our network through hosting a weekly run, utilizing the City of Miami views provided from the Rickenbacker Causeway and bridge. In addition to the weekly run, we've strengthened our bond by participating in a variety of community and social events, promoting health and wellness extending beyond the running path.

Life-changing opportunity for Liberty City youth
I’m helping raise money to send 10 Liberty City young men, ages 17 to 21, on an inspirational trip of a lifetime: to the Obama Foundation’s first ever My Bother’s Keeper Rising! Conference, February 18 to 20 in Oakland, CA.

It may be happening clear across the country from South Florida, but as always…there’s a Miami connection! Cecilia Gutierrez, the former Executive Director of The Miami Children’s Initiative, now works for the Obama Foundation. She recently had a chance meeting with President Obama in, of all places, an elevator ride. Acting quickly and boldly, Cecilia asked the President if he would take time to meet a Liberty City youth delegation if she was able to get them to attend the MBK conference, which he too was planning to attend. Inspired by the gutsy ask, Obama said YES!

A formal invitation for the young men to meet the former President and attend the conference—which celebrates and promotes ways to build strong, lasting bridges of opportunity for boys and girls, young men and young women of color—came soon after. And now, we’re raising money to help them get there. We need $15,000 to cover the cost of the airfare and hotel stay.

The Key Biscayne Community Foundation (where I work at Executive Director) stepped in to kick things off and start spreading the word. So did the Chief Press Foundation, a non-profit set up by Key Biscayne Chief of Police Charles Press. I'm proud to say, both our organizations have long-standing relationships with Liberty City. In fact, Chief Press himself will join the young men on the trip as their chaperone.

Please help us send 10 deserving young men on this once-in-a-lifetime, transformational journey.

The Chief Press Foundation's mission is to create a new conversation between underserved neighborhoods and police officers to ensure greater trust and cooperation; it also strives to create communities that care. For more information, go to sistercity.us .
