The Values That Drive Us as an Organization

Collaboration

We are the conveners and advocates of the nonprofit sector in Miami-Dade County. We collaborate with nonprofit, for-profit, and government entities with shared goals of working together toward a greater Miami-Dade County.

Accessibility

While we serve the entire sector, we are committed to making our programs accessible to smaller, community-based organizations by providing free or low-cost resources and scholarships.

Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging

In the design, planning, and execution of all that we do, we tap into the rich diversity – in all its forms – of our local and national communities. Our goal is for every person and every organization in the nonprofit sector to find in PhilanthropyMiami a place where they can belong.

Innovation and Thought Leadership

We deliver on our promise by infusing forward-looking innovation, excellence, creativity, and thought leadership into every program and service offering, so that every person walks away confident that they receive something of value.

Impact

We use data to measure the impact of our programs and services, drive decision-making and guide collaborations with other organizations.

We also love doing it.
