Our Mission

Our mission is to preserve paradise for future generations. Through fundraising, hands-on projects, and strategic partnerships with related non-profit organizations around the world, The Paradise Fund is redefining disaster relief. For over a decade, The Paradise Fund has been dedicated to assisting disaster relief in areas where it is most needed through its grants. As we enter a new decade, The Paradise Fund has launched a new hands-on initiative called “Project Paradise.” From rebuilding schools, constructing community centers, and delivering emergency supplies such as food, water and medicine, Project Paradise, is ready to take action in a moment’s notice. Premised on the indisputable value that immediate relief is an absolute must in the wake of natural disaster, our organization is light on our feet and, with a roster of more than 50 pilots and aircraft, are in many cases the first non-government aircraft to land. We have found that there is too often a duplication of efforts and therefore Project Paradise strives to form coalitions with other organizations for each initiative.

We also believe that taking actions takes place before it’s too late, and are taking steps to educate and spread awareness about causes of these ongoing changes in weather patterns that ultimately become natural disasters. Florida and our neighboring areas are bellwethers for what will happen around that globe in the upcoming decades, we are just seeing it first due to the sensitive nature of our latitude and region.

TRANSPARENCY

Where many non-profit organizations often fall short, our goal is to provide full transparency in our relief efforts. Working in connection with local business and non-profit organizations, The Paradise Fund will provide its donors and supporters with ongoing status updates regarding our hands-on work. By documenting our philanthropic works, both on film and on paper, The Paradise Fund provides a modern level of transparency for disaster-relief work.
