HISTORY

 For more than four decades, the Foundation has funded programming for a wide variety of projects.

Originally conceived in 1968 by members of the Greater Miami Chamber of Commerce “to conduct projects, programs and studies deemed to be in the interest of providing the best possible urban environment for all citizens,” the Foundation evolved to be proactive in addressing issues considered paramount to the area’s progress and performance as the largest Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) in the nation’s third largest state.  In pursuit of that mission, it seeks also to build Greater Miami’s reputation as a gateway for international trade and commerce.

The South Florida Progress Foundation is a 501 (c) 3. All donations are tax-deductible to the extent provided for by law.

The federal tax identification number is 59-6216592. The corporation is registered in Florida as 714837.
