Coral Gables Community Foundation



The Coral Gables Community Foundation was established, in September 1991, by community leaders with the mission of fostering programs and initiatives that encourage cultural, educational, health, historic preservation and charitable projects which contribute to the quality of life for people living and working in our community.


Since that time, the Foundation has aided worthy programs that help the youth, elderly and disabled citizens. Foundation grants have helped provide dental care for needy children, fund cultural activities, provide financial assistance in the form of small grants for families in distress, and have acted as a catalyst for many projects through its many initiatives.
