VUGA Foundation supports independent journalism as a pillar of cultural life. Communities deserve reporting that takes them seriously — coverage that goes beyond press releases to capture the texture of a city, its people, and the decisions that shape daily life. The Foundation backs two South Florida publications committed to exactly that work.
Miami County Post
Publishing since 2008, Miami County Post covers news and events across Miami, the wider state of Florida, lifestyle, real estate, and community life. Over sixteen years it has grown into a trusted regional source — closely attentive to local businesses, civic meetings, and the practical matters that affect residents.
City News Miami
City News Miami reports across five beats: culture, law, Florida, Miami, and events. The publication takes a straightforward, news-focused approach to legal proceedings, local governance, business developments, entertainment, dining, fashion, and technology — providing Miami-Dade County with careful coverage of the things that move the city forward.
Why it matters
As local news deserts spread across the country, independent publications like these keep civic life legible. The Foundation's support helps both newsrooms continue producing the kind of patient, on-the-ground reporting that strong communities depend on.
