Jason Jenkins Legacy Grant

Intro

About the Jason Jenkins Legacy Grant:  
Jason Jenkins dedicated his life to serving the Miami Dolphins and the South Florida community for 14 years. The lasting impact he made and relationships he built helped to strengthen both the organization and local community. In honor of Jason and his family, the Miami Dolphins Foundation will annually award a $50,000 grant to a 501(c)(3) nonprofit driving meaningful, long-term change in underserved communities. 

Gallagher, a leading global insurance brokerage, risk management, and consulting firm, in collaboration with the Miami Dolphins Foundation, is recognized as a supporting partner of the Jason Jenkins Legacy Grant.

"As a global organization, we recognize both the opportunity and responsibility to make a positive difference in the places where we live and work. Through partnerships like the Jason Jenkins Legacy Grant, we invest in initiatives that support local communities, inspire meaningful change, and empower individuals and organizations to thrive." 

Together, the Miami Dolphins Foundation and Gallagher are committed to supporting programs that address social inequities, respond to community-identified needs, and create sustainable change across South Florida. Eligible applicants should demonstrate a strong track record of service and a clear vision for how this funding will strengthen and expand their impact, advancing the Miami Dolphins Foundation's mission of building a healthier, more educated, and more united South Florida.
