Give Miami Day is Nov. 21

     Give Miami Day is Thursday, Nov. 21.  The annual event enables people in South Florida to donate online to their favorite non-profits, more than 1,000 organizations that serve the region and receive 100% of donations.

     Last year, 46,000 donors gave more than $34 million to groups with causes including education, the environment, children and the arts, according to The Miami Foundation, which hosts the 24-hour event.

     There are many groups in or near Miami Lakes hoping for support.  A quick search on the foundation’s website brought up Main Street Players; Jose Marti MAST 6-12 Academy PTSA; First Tee Miami; Ballet Etudes of South Florida, Inc.; The Marian Center School and Services, Inc.; Guardians of Human Rights Foundation; Pelican Playhouse Inc.,  The Education Fund and The Women’s Breast & Heart Initiative, among many more.
