About Miami Innovators Who Care

Initial MIWC Pledge Goal: $500,000 for the Children’s Village at Lotus Village capital campaign, to advance access to technology, and will include the naming of a room or space in the Children’s Village for MIWC and the founding pledgers of MIC, collectively.

Lotus Endowment is accepting pledges from MIWC founding members of $50,000, $25,000, and $10,000, payable upfront ideally, though annual installments over 5 years is also an option. Pledges of other amounts are welcomed and will be discussed on an individual basis.

In addition to the name recognition for MIWC, all founding members of MIWC will receive the following:

— a 5-year membership to MIWC, including invitations to MIWC member service days and information sessions over a 5-year period

— Tickets to the annual Lotus House Gala (including this year’s 20th Anniversary Gala on November 9) as follows:

   - $50,000: 2 tickets per year for 5 years (2024-2028 Galas)

   - $25,000: 2 tickets per year for 3 years (2024-2026 Galas)

   - $10,000: 2 tickets to the 2024 Gala

MIWC organizer Rachna Bhasin will join the board of directors of Lotus House, and MIWC organizer Seth Cassel is already a board member, ensuring ample board representation for MIWC. Additional MIWC members may be considered for board membership at the discretion of Lotus House leadership.

Our vision is for MIWC to increase membership via word-of-mouth among likeminded professional in the “new” Miami.
