The Zoe Loren Foundation was established to celebrate Zoe’ life and to honor her memory by providing opportunities in the arts for under-served K-12 Palm Beach County students. Our goal is to use the power of art to engage, inspire and empower local students via individual scholarships as well as funding to local non-profits in need of an arts program.
Our mission is to enrich the lives of Palm Beach County’s children by providing opportunities for exploration and inspiration.
