Support the work
Help keep the work moving.
The Proxenia Foundation brings people, ideas, and institutions together around the future of hospitality, entrepreneurship, and innovation in Central Florida.
Through accelerator programs, industry convenings, research, education, and relationship-building, we create stronger connections between the people who know the industry and the people building what comes next.
Support with purpose
Stronger connections create stronger opportunities.
The Proxenia Foundation connects hospitality experience with entrepreneurship, education, technology, research, and community participation across Central Florida.
General contributions help sustain that work as it happens — from research and industry conversations to founder access and educational opportunity.
You can support the work with a one-time contribution, create dependable support through monthly giving, or make a larger early commitment as a Founding Steward.
General support
Help fund the work behind the work.
One-time and monthly contributions help cover the real costs of running Proxenia — convenings, program tools, research and communications, outreach, legal and organizational work, and the infrastructure that keeps people and opportunities connected.
Give once
One-time donations help to build awareness
Every contribution helps us create more opportunities for people, ideas, and institutions to connect productively.
Suggested amounts
Every contribution helps move the Foundation’s work forward.
Give monthly
Recurring contributions sustain the day-to-day operations
Monthly support provides a dependable base the Foundation can plan around throughout the year.
CONSIDER A LARGER COMMITMENT
Some support sustains the work. Some helps establish it.
If you want to help establish the institution as it’s being built, Founding Stewardship begins at $1,000 and is designed for individuals and organizations making a significant early commitment to the Foundation’s operating base and long-term capacity.
Building for the long term
From early momentum to lasting infrastructure
Until now, Proxenia has been built through founder-funded operating costs, donated expertise, volunteer time, contributed venues, and people willing to open doors.
That proved the model works.
Building something that lasts requires a broader base of support.
Contributions help create the organizational foundation that allows Proxenia’s programs, partnerships, research, convenings, and other initiatives to continue and grow.
