Building Climate & Disaster Resilience<\/h1>\n

In partnership with government officials and grassroots organizations, we strengthen the resiliency of our built and natural environment against hurricanes, extreme heat, and other natural and manmade disasters.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1673405025913{padding-top: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 30px !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”37397″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_border” border_color=”white” css_animation=”fadeInUp” css=””][vc_column_text css=””]\n

Biscayne Bay Recovery<\/h2>\n

During Florida\u2019s 2021 legislative session, our Bay champions Senator Ileana Garcia and State Representative Nick Duran led a successful bipartisan effort to create the Biscayne Bay specialty license plate. Revenue generated through plate sales will provide funding to preserve and restore Biscayne Bay.[\/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Learn More” style=”outline” shape=”square” color=”black” align=”left” i_align=”right” i_icon_fontawesome=”fas fa-long-arrow-alt-right” css_animation=”fadeInUp” css=”” add_icon=”true” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fmiamifoundation.org%2Fwhat-we-do%2Fbiscayne-bay-recovery%2F|title:Biscayne%20Bay%20Recovery”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”41592″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_border” border_color=”white” css_animation=”fadeInUp” css=””][vc_column_text css=””]\n

Disaster Resilience & Relief<\/h4>\n

Miami is no stranger to disaster. We are a community that sits on the frontline of climate change and is frequently in the path of hurricanes. In times of disaster, we stand together to increase our impact, streamline the pathway to support, and minimize duplicative efforts.<\/p>\n

When a disaster hits, we want every neighborhood in Miami to be able to spring into action and access resources immediately. Together with foundations and philanthropists, we activate our Disaster Resilience Fund, a unified<\/strong> and proactive<\/strong> approach that supports disaster preparedness and equitable long-term recovery efforts.<\/p>\n

When a storm hits our neighbors, either across Florida or in neighboring islands, we identify trusted, locally driven efforts and support their work.[\/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Learn More” style=”outline” shape=”square” color=”black” align=”left” i_align=”right” i_icon_fontawesome=”fas fa-long-arrow-alt-right” css_animation=”fadeInUp” css=”” add_icon=”true” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fmiamifoundation.org%2Fwhat-we-do%2Fdisaster-resilience%2F|title:Biscayne%20Bay%20Recovery”][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1673405025913{padding-top: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 30px !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”41600″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_border” border_color=”white” css_animation=”fadeInUp” css=””][vc_column_text css=””]\n

Resilient 305<\/h2>\n

This Resilient305 Strategy is a living document created to address regional challenges we identified and prioritized through intergovernmental and community collaboration. Throughout the process, GM&B engaged thousands of stakeholders to make sure it reflected the input from a wide range of expertise, ages, ethnicities, cultures, income levels and geographic areas.[\/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Learn More” style=”outline” shape=”square” color=”black” align=”left” i_align=”right” i_icon_fontawesome=”fas fa-long-arrow-alt-right” css_animation=”fadeInUp” css=”” add_icon=”true” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fresilient305.com|title:Biscayne%20Bay%20Recovery|target:_blank”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”36594″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_border” border_color=”white” css_animation=”fadeInUp” css=””][vc_column_text css=””]\n

Support Surfside<\/h2>\n

On June 24th, 2021 at approximately 1:30 in the morning, a twelve-story residential building with 136 units partially collapsed. The Coral Gables Community Foundation, The Key Biscayne Community Foundation, and The Miami Foundation have stood together since then to build a relief fund and distribute funds to those impacted. In December 2021, all of the remaining funds were disbursed to victims and families.[\/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Learn More” style=”outline” shape=”square” color=”black” align=”left” i_align=”right” i_icon_fontawesome=”fas fa-long-arrow-alt-right” css_animation=”fadeInUp” css=”” add_icon=”true” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fsupportsurfside.org|title:Biscayne%20Bay%20Recovery|target:_blank”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
