We believe

The Key West mystique

We believe there really is such a thing as the Key West state of mind. We believe that whether you were born here or first met Key West in 1970 or just a few weeks ago, those who love the island will never stray far. Preserving and enhancing that Key West mystique sustains our island home forever.

Be a smart citizen

We believe citizens should understand the Key West, Monroe County and Florida governmental decisions that shape our quality of life and the economic health of our community

Protect the environment

We believe improving environmental practices to protect the island, its waters and its wildlife while integrating appropriate growth and development sustains our future

Help those who help

We believe supporting the efforts of local not-for-profits, artists and entertainers to achieve their goals helps us all succeed and preserves the best of Key West

Support those who work

We believe in supporting local business owners, our workforce and our entrepreneurs to develop their potential to succeed and reach their markets
