Joshua Wander is the managing partner and founder of 777 Partners, located in Miami, Florida. A donor to various Florida charities, Joshua Wander supports the Miami-based Mourning Family Foundation.
Established in 1997 by Tracy and Alonzo Mourning, the Mourning Family Foundation has raised over $25 million for educational and extracurricular activities for young people in south Florida’s underprivileged communities. To this end, the Foundation created several programs, including the Capital Campaign, the Antipoverty Initiative, and the Educational Scholarship Fund.
In the summer of 2016, the Foundation set up the Educational Scholarship Fund with the premise that students from a community of color should not be denied the chance to further their education at an institution of higher learning simply because they lack the financial resources. Working with local schools, the Fund identifies and selects qualified high school seniors in south Florida and awards them a four-year scholarship to cover the educational expenses at the college of their choice.
