DOG IS MY COPILOT

where loving families are waiting. Peter E. Rork, M.D., an orthopedic surgeon and lifelong pilot, co-founded the organization in 2012 with the goal of saving as many animal lives as possible. We work collaboratively with city shelters, local animal welfare organizations and individuals across the nation to coordinate transports. We provide our air services at no cost to the shelters and adoption centers we partner with. Since our inception, we have helped save the lives of over 23,000 dogs and cats with our transport flights.

Feeding Tampa Bay

Our strategic plan ensures everyone in need has access to healthy, nutritious food, and the resources they need to combat the effects of hunger – bringing about a hunger-free Tampa Bay. Every day, we get closer to ending hunger in our community, but you can take part in the action. Cultivate your role in fulfilling our mission of providing 143 million meals every year, nourishing self-ustainable lives and transforming our community’s wellbeing.

Humane Society

The Humane Society of Tampa Bay, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, provides shelter for homeless & at-risk animals, adoptions, hospital and TNVR services for the general public; operates independently from the Humane Society of the United States. And we, along with our animals, would love to have you as a partner on this journey.

Stand with us and other like-minded individuals, animal welfare organizations, foundations and companies as we work to end animal homelessness in Tampa Bay. By lending your voice, mobilizing supporters and customers, and helping to raise critical funds, you can change the lives of pets and people.

Enzian Theater

Enzian is Central Florida’s only full-time independent cinema and home of Eden Bar and the Florida Film Festival. Enzian exists to entertain, inspire, educate, and connect the community through film. It is a member supported, non-profit cultural organization and all proceeds from membership fees, ticket sales, and food and beverage go toward supporting its mission.

Enzian is a single-screen cinema café offering mostly independent & foreign films with two unique dining options and a variety of special programming. At Enzian, you will experience a fusion of food and film.

No Kid Hungry

Our goal is to ensure that every child gets the food they need to grow up healthy, happy and strong. To do that successfully, we must understand the strengths and the needs of the communities we serve. We must also understand the root causes of childhood hunger – some families face more challenges than others, especially Black and Latino families.

Mustard Seed Ministries

Mustard Seed Ministries is an outreach organization working cooperatively to provide assistance for individuals and families struggling to make ends meet in St. Lucie County. 

Mustard Seed addresses the financial, educational, physical, and emotional needs of the community, through the power of cooperation and faith.

World Central Kitchen

WCK responds to natural disasters, man-made crises, and humanitarian emergencies around the world. We’re a team of food first responders, mobilizing with the urgency of now to get meals to the people who need them most. Deploying our model of quick action, leveraging local resources, and adapting in real time, we know that a nourishing meal in a time of crisis is so much more than a plate of food—it’s hope, it’s dignity, and it’s a sign that someone cares. 

St Jude Children’s Hospital

Since we opened in 1962, our mission has been to find cures for kids with cancer and other life-threatening diseases, regardless of race, ethnicity, beliefs or a family’s ability to pay.

In the years ahead, an estimated 89% of the funds necessary to sustain and grow St. Jude must be raised from generous donors. This is why supporters are so important in fulfilling the promise of St. Jude founder Danny Thomas, who believed that “no child should die in the dawn of life.”
