The Deering Estate Foundation, Inc.

Established in 1989, The Deering Estate Foundation, Inc., is a nonprofit community based 501(c)3 Florida Corporation and the philanthropic arm of the Deering Estate at Cutler. Our Board of Directors, members and volunteers are made up of a diverse group of business and community leaders who are dedicated advocates of the Estate and active supporters of education, research, cultural arts, restoration and preservation. The Foundation enjoys a seamless and productive partnership with the Estate's staff. We respectfully leave the core programming and operations in the very capable hands of the Estate's staff, focusing instead on obtaining and providing the added resources they need in the way of capital, equipment, supplies and marketing to get programs up and running until they are self-supporting and obtaining scholarship funding to secure and/or extend the development and reach of programs.
