Give Miami Day Appreciation

Thanksgiving leftovers are gone but our Blue Scholars plate continues to overflow with gratitude for the recent outpouring of support during The Miami Foundation’s Give Miami Day on November 16. The contributions of more than 60 individuals and organizations enabled us to surpass our goal of $30,000, which includes match funds provided by a Blue Scholars Board Member. We could not have done this without our family of donors… THANK YOU!

As we approach the end of the year, we continue to not only serve our scholars but also present The 12 Days of Biscayne Bay campaign and prepare for the 4th annual Biscayne Bay Celebration. It is your support that makes this all possible so please join us on December 9 to celebrate Blue Scholars, YOU and our beloved bay.
