Bring HOPE to our Afterschool Progams!

Bring HOPE to our Kidz2Success Afterschool Program!

Each year, Hope for Miami serves over 494 students in our after-school and summer camp programs. These students reside throughout Miami-Dade County and range from Kindergarten through 8th grade. We also serve teens with disabilities, in grades 9th-12th, at three locations in Miami-Dade Public Schools.

For over 25 years, Hope for Miami has specialized in "filling gaps" or meeting unmet community needs. In 2005, we started the first after-school program to serve Deaf children. A group of Deaf students was integrated at the site with their hearing peers, and everyone learned Sign Language together. We had staff who were fluent in Sign Language to help meet the children’s social/emotional needs, and help them avoid experiencing isolation with just an Interpreter and no peers. 

Since then, we have set up year-round programs to ensure that high school students with a disability have access to programs focusing on independent living and transitions to adulthood.

Your contribution will help:  

• Support our scholarship fund. This fund supports families that are experiencing financiacial hardship by offsetting the cost of after-school care.
• Provide alternative activities and pro-social events for our youth with disabilities.
• Offset the rising transportation costs for transporting our students from school to our after-school and summer camp sites. 
• Special events! 

Our vision is to see Miami become a place where each of us uses our resources, skills, and interests as "threads" to re-weave our neighborhoods into a tapestry of well-being for everyone. Please click below and become a THREAD in our community this Give Miami Day 2025!
