As summer activities ramp up, so do outdoor activi As summer activities ramp up, so do outdoor activities.  It’s important to keep safety top of mind. Whether you're heading to the beach, traveling, spending time outdoors, or enjoying community events, taking simple precautions can help prevent injuries and keep everyone safe.

Remember to stay hydrated, protect yourself from the sun with sunscreen and appropriate clothing, be mindful of heat-related illnesses, and practice safe driving as roads become busier.

If you're enjoying the water remember feet first when entering and never dive in shallow water.  Always wear a life jacket when appropriate and never leave children unattended.

A little preparation and precaution goes a long way toward making this summer enjoyable, healthy, and safe for everyone. Stay alert, look out for one another, and make safety part of every summer adventure.

Because One Day Can Change Everything. No family Because One Day Can Change Everything.
 
No family expects the day when life suddenly changes. That is why The Miami Project’s work matters.  An accident. A diagnosis. A moment that turns ordinary life into something no one was prepared to face. For families living with traumatic spinal cord and brain injury, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, ALS, Multiple Sclerosis and stroke, the need for better answers is not distant. It is part of daily life.

Our researchers are pursuing better treatments and cures so families facing these conditions can have more options, more possibility, and more reason to look ahead.

Your support helps make sure science is moving when families need it most.

Follow the link in the bio to learn how you can help.

Because of donors like you, this work continues.
 
Please give today. 
 
When life changes, families should not have to wait for science to begin.
