 THE HELPING HAND
 Uniting in times of change With Election Day behind us, we are encouraged by the record number of voter turnout. This election should be the beginning of a renewed local commitment to civic and community engagement, and United Way of Miami-Dade looks forward to helping people come together to build a stronger community for all. We remain committed to mobilizing the caring power of communities to drive real, sustainable social change—grounded in diversity, equity and inclusion. We invite you to join us in our commitment to building and empowering communities.
