Join us in supporting O, Miami! We've set a 250 donor goal to sustain and expand our public school programs & educational resources.
O, Miami's Sunroom provides early literacy support & writing enrichment in Miami-Dade schools. It also provides lesson plans and training for teachers and other educators nationwide. Beyond the classroom, we offer a free mentorship program for emerging Miami artists of all disciplines, partnering with Locust Projects, Bakehouse Art Complex, PAMM, & other local institutions.
O, Miami's education work spills into the community when student poetry appears on unexpected surfaces across town, like campuses, sidewalks, parks, libraries-- or in our books. Our publishing imprint & Civic Publishing initiatives encourage young Miamians to share their narrative of the city.
We believe in this work, and hope you do, too. Besides donating, you can help by sharing this page within your community.
We love Miami. Our student poets say it best:
I am from a neighborhood of chicken melodies —Alisha, 5th Grade
The sun follows me everywhere, like a friend playing tag. —Wadeson, 5th Grade
