VENEZUELA COUNTY EMPLOYEE LEAVE DONATIONS

Board of County Commissioners · 2026-07-21 · resolution

Miami-Dade County is considering a resolution (File Number: 261210) to allow county employees to donate the monetary value of their accrued holiday and annual leave time to the County's Emergency Disaster Relief Fund. This fund would then be used to support relief efforts for the recent earthquakes in Venezuela. The resolution directs the County Mayor or designee to publicize the program, make forms available for employee contributions, select appropriate recipient organization(s) for the donations, and provide a report on the total funds donated within 30 days of the donation being made. The earthquakes, which occurred on June 24, 2026, had epicenters in the San Felipe/Yumare region of Yaracuy state, Venezuela, and caused widespread destruction, fatalities, injuries, and displacement.
