About Florida Immigrant Coalition
Florida Immigrant Coalition Inc centers its giving on immigrant advocacy in Florida, with a recent $100,000 grant to MISSION TALK Inc in Clermont for advocacy for immigrant work. The foundation’s latest grants show a clear pattern of support for organizations advancing immigrant rights through organizing, legal-related advocacy, and civic engagement. Hope Community Center in Apopka received $50,000 for the same broad purpose, while The Farmworker Association of Florida in Apopka and Redlands Christian Migrant Association in Immokalee each received $40,000. Those awards suggest a funder that concentrates on Florida-based groups working directly with immigrant communities and the institutions that serve them. Across the recent grants list, the foundation’s support is not limited to one type of organization; it includes advocacy groups, community centers, and immigrant-serving nonprofits. The grants also show attention to both urban and agricultural communities, with recipients in Miami, Apopka, Clermont, Homestead, Key Largo, and Immokalee. The recurring purpose text across awards points to issue-focused support rather than unrestricted philanthropic breadth.
What Florida Immigrant Coalition Funds
In immigrant legal services and related advocacy, the foundation awarded $20,000 to American Friends Service Committee in Miami for advocacy for immigrant work. It also gave $20,000 to The New Florida Majority Education Fund in Miami, continuing support for organizations engaged in policy and advocacy efforts tied to immigrant communities. Community-based organizing appears as another thread: Catalyst Miami received $20,000 in Miami for the same purpose, and Miami Workers Center received $5,000. The list also includes voter and civic engagement-oriented work through grants to immigrant-serving groups such as FANM Inc in Miami and Wecount in Homestead. Farmworker-focused advocacy is represented by The Farmworker Association of Florida in Apopka and Redlands Christian Migrant Association in Immokalee, showing that the foundation supports immigrant communities across different Florida regions and issue settings.
How Florida Immigrant Coalition Gives
Typical grants cluster around a median of $20,000, with the middle half running from $16,500 at the 25th percentile to $40,000 at the 75th percentile. The recent list includes one much larger award at $100,000, but most grants sit in the $20,000 to $40,000 range. The pattern appears program-oriented and issue-specific, with repeated advocacy funding rather than individual grants. The foundation is a regular funder, not a DAF, and it does not fund individuals or make program-related investments. The 2024 grants shown are all to organizational recipients in Florida.
