20th Anniversary BAPTIST HEALTH SOUTH FLORIDA FOUNDATION Presenting Sponsor, PhilanthropyMiami 2016 - 2017 Twenty years ago, Miami was not home to the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts, the Perez Art Museum Miami, the Miller School of Medicine at the University of Miami, nor the Frost Museum of Science. Transformational philanthropy, and with it a legacy that will last generations, has changed the landscape in arts and culture, higher education, medicine, and science in Miami. This generosity, bestowed by individuals, corporations, and foundations, has changed our city and placed Miami squarely on the world stage. Twenty years ago, we could only have dreamed of the hundreds of millions of dollars that have poured into our local non-profits. We could only have dreamed of the initiative, the heart and the time that has been invested in lifting our community. Twenty years ago, “app”, “text to give” and “social media engagement” were not phrases in our collective vocabularies. Times have changed for consumers and for philanthropists. From Kickstarter to Social Venture Partners, there are more ways than ever to help an organization improve a community condition. Today, as Miami continues to emerge as a hub of entrepreneurial activities and social impact ventures, we at PhilanthropyMiami are proud to have evolved as well. Twenty years ago, our group was founded as “Leave A Legacy” with the mantra that “everyone can be a philanthropist”. Last year, to better reflect our work, we changed our name to PhilanthropyMiami and crafted a clear mission: To inspire philanthropy for a greater Miami. We gratefully acknowledge the supporters that make our work possible. The philanthropist is essential to changing Miami for the better. For some, philanthropy is making a charitable gift that supports the work of a non-profit. For others, philanthropy is the investment of time and talent in a cause or mission. Congratulations to the philanthropists and volunteers that are our 2017 Donors Next Door – you are creating the Miami we all seek and inspiring others to join you. Thank you, Henry H.
