Senior Director of Economic Resilience
The Miami Foundation
Brittany Morgan, Senior Director of Economic Resilience, was born and raised in Miami and joined the foundation in 2022 to design and launch the Open for Business fund, a $20 million investment in asset building for Miami-Dade’s minority entrepreneurs. Through this program, she pioneered a commercial down payment fund that helps business owners and nonprofit leaders acquire shared equity property in Miami’s most underinvested communities. As an extension of this work, she is building a place-based impact investing fund that will drive capital towards community development projects in housing, small business, climate, and more.
A seasoned community economic development professional, she brings 15 years of experience working in diverse program and project management roles spanning the small business, public health, education, and workforce sectors. Brittany is ardently passionate about economic parity, social equality, and racial justice. Brittany holds a bachelor’s from the University of Chicago in international studies with a minor in human rights, and a master’s degree from the University of Chicago Harris School of Public Policy.
