Partnership & Recognition
Honoring those who make progress possible
Every donor listed below has invested in comprehensive reentry services, emergency shelter operations, and evidence-based programming that reduces recidivism and rebuilds lives with dignity. Whether through leadership gifts, monthly giving, in-kind contributions, or volunteer service — your partnership proves that investing in people works.
We are committed to delivering quality, effective, and faith-based support that guides formerly incarcerated men and women to become productive citizens and rebuild their lives.
We envision a stronger and more unified Miami where formerly incarcerated individuals become productive citizens and valued members of our vibrant community.
We are grounded in community, diversity, spirituality, accountability, family, and productivity — the foundational core values that make our transformational work possible.
Your Effort & Impact Matters
Private donations fund programs federal contracts don't cover like life skills, spiritual, alumni, and emergency assistance as well as facility improvements that enhance quality of care.
Evidence-Based Results
Behind our 95% success rate and 50+ years of continuous service are hundreds of donors who invested when others wouldn't. Your support creates measurable community impact.

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, Riverside House maintains accountability through annual audits, IRS Form 990 filings, federal compliance reviews, and board oversight. Donations are tax-deductible.
