Our Story
Born from love during a crisis
"During the darkest time, I saw the brightest potential."
In 2020, as the world stood still, Tamara Burton looked around her Orlando community and saw something that couldn't wait — people lost their jobs struggled to provide for their family. The pandemic had closed doors everywhere. Tamara decided to open her Heart to help families children and the homeless in need in her community.
Heart to Give was founded on a simple belief: community is very important. Tamara making a difference awarding The heart to Give scholarships in her late Mother Gloria Robert Burton name, to feeding our neighbors in need every month.
