Spending her time between Key Biscayne and Colorado, West Virginia native Sonja Craythorne has lived in Miami since 1974. After a successful career at the University of Miami Medical Center, she began working with Born Free Pet Shelter in 2004. “I started by volunteering to show dogs at pet shops, and as I got more involved, I realized they needed help in all aspects, including administration, volunteer recruitment, shelter maintenance, fundraising, dog care and finding new permanent and foster homes,” she says. For years, she volunteered 30-40 hours a week. “I became the queen of garage sales — everyone brought me donations, and when I accumulated enough, I would sell the items with all proceeds going to the shelter,” she says. “We also organized holiday events and an annual dinner & dance, gradually recruiting a permanent group of dedicated volunteers.”

Manny Rionda was born in Connecticut and began coming to Key Biscayne in 1971 as a toddler to visit family, before moving to the island in 1978. “My love for the ocean began while growing up in Key Biscayne, where carefree days were spent outside from dawn to dusk — riding bikes, discovering fishing holes, building forts in the mangroves, diving local reefs, and launching from rope swings into the waters around our island paradise.” In 2016, he and his best friend Nancy Levitt Davis had an idea to encourage more people to adopt their habit of picking up marine debris and beach litter during daily walks. Two years later, they entered The Miami Foundation’s Public Space Challenge, submitting the idea for Fill A Bag. They won a small grant, initially intended to activate five Fill A Bag Stations in the first year. The interest has been remarkable. “To date, we’ve launched over 30 stations along Florida’s coastline, as well as one in Cape Cod,” he says. Future plans on the horizon include international Fill A Bag stations in Malta, the Gili Islands, and the Philippines.

Meet a few islanders dedicating their free time toward causes they are passionate about in the hopes of doing their part to help make our community a better place to live, work and prosper. Presented by @johnniewalker Tony Goudie believes that we don’t give and serve others because we have to, we do it because we get to. “God placed within me a heart for others,” he says. “To serve and stand in the gap whenever possible is not just my pleasure but my privilege.” The beloved Youth Pastor & Coach regularly gives back to not only the Key Biscayne Community Church, but to Glory House, His House, Operation Christmas Child, The Chief Press Foundation, Teen Talks w/ Fire Chief Eric Lang and fundraisers for various causes. “I believe we’re all given seeds to plant, whether it be words of kindness or acts of love, we all have a major influence on the lives of others,” he says. “The great part is that many times we will be oblivious to the impact we’ve had, and I believe that’s how God intends it to be.”

Presented by @johnniewalker For Donna Doscher, having a personal connection to the causes she cares about is the most important aspect of giving. Moving to Key Biscayne from NYC 2.5 years ago, she’s already left a lasting impact on the community. “I truly believe God brought me to this magical, sunny, spicy and absolutely stunning location and I’m thankful every day that my family is here,” she says. Most recently, she started a GoFundMe for a friend on the island who lost her home and everything she owned in a terrible fire. “The mission of the effort is to help her rebuild after suffering extreme loss — I knew I couldn’t just sit back and watch her young family suffer,” she says. “The outpouring of support for the cause showed my friend that the strength and support of the community is far stronger than any fire — it was the first step she needed to get back on her feet!” Doscher is also actively involved in local and national causes including The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, American Cancer Society, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, Best Buddies, St. Agnes, The Wounded Warriors, Folds of Honor and the Key Biscayne Community Foundation, where she volunteers for the “Adopt A Senior” program.
