Hands On Miami greatly appreciates <br />you taking the first of many steps in making the fund a leality and looks forward to working <br />together to sustain its core purposes, <br /> <br />Your support allowed Hands On Miami to share a vision of a socially responsible corporate and <br />government sector that weaves social and environmental concerns into its strategies and <br />objectives. In front of 20 Miami-Dade mayors and 120 corporate representatives you shared your <br />city's devotion in making our community a better place. The night's success was furthered by an <br />opening drive of $25,000 in pledges and commitments from you and your colleagues, <br /> <br />The Build A More Beautiful Miami-Dade Fund provides your city the opportunity to strengthen <br />its non-profit programming, At the same time it allows Hands On Miami the ability to identify <br />and support your city's community service and civic engagement initiatives, As you know, <br />federally earmarked non,profit dollars are being cut back and it is Hands On Miami's <br />responsibility as an intermediary agency to leverage its collaborative abilities within the private, <br />public, and social sectors, EvelY single dollar your municipality pledges is matched by a $50,000 <br />challenge grant from the Batchelor Foundation to provide the scarce human and financial <br />resources that your agencies depend on to provide its high quality programming. <br /> <br />We would like to share with you the multiple dimensions of the fund and the future of Hands On <br />Miami through an exploratory meeting with you or the appropriate city staff. We look forward to <br />carrying on your dedication and suppOl1 for the Build A More Beautiful Miami-Dade Fund and <br />its future events.
