Miami Impact: Powered by the ViVE Community
The results are in from all who voted in the ViVE Charity Poll to benefit Miami residents in need, led by the Advancement League and the HLTH Foundation.
As promised, we’re leaving Miami a bit better off than when we arrived–and ViVE attendees decided how to make an impact.
The Overtown Youth Center (OYC) received the most votes and will receive a donation of $5,000!
OYC provides academic mentoring and social support programs for Kindergarten through college-aged kids from disadvantaged neighborhoods. Our donation will help fund OYC’s facility expansion, increasing its capacity from 1,700 youth and families served in 2020, to 5,000–and will eventually power impact beyond Miami-Dade County.
“We all thrive when we know we have someone who loves us – and for many community members, that person is OYC.” –Overtown Youth Center CEO Tina Brown
We’re also pleased to support the Women’s Fund of Miami Dade and Women of Tomorrow Mentor & Scholarship Program with donations of $1,250 each.
With help from the ViVE community, we will continue to uplift people and organizations making crucial, positive change for their communities.
