Peretz Foundation
PERETZ FOUNDATION is a nonprofit organization dedicated to nurturing creativity, preserving cultural heritage, and uplifting communities through the transformative power of the arts.
Healthy Food
Nutrition is a cornerstone of well-being. We provide fresh, wholesome meals during our programs and events, ensuring that everyone—especially youth and vulnerable populations—has access to food that fuels both body and mind.
Education
We invest in programs that inspire young minds and make the arts accessible to all.
Medical
We offer access to basic healthcare services and wellness resources for artists, volunteers, and community members in need. From routine checkups to mental health support, we ensure that those we serve are cared for physically and emotionally.
Team Water
Hydration is essential, especially during long workshops or outdoor activities. Our “Team Water” initiative ensures that clean, accessible drinking water is always available, promoting health and sustainability while encouraging teamwork and care for one another.
Support Emerging Artists
We provide grants, mentorship, and platforms for creators whose voices deserve to be heard.
Travel Activities
Exploration fuels imagination. Through organized trips, cultural excursions, and artist residencies, we give participants the chance to experience new environments, connect with diverse communities, and find inspiration beyond their everyday surroundings.
Featured Causes
Art for Healing: Community Therapy Through Creativity
Community therapy through creativity is a participatory approach that uses artistic practices to foster emotional well-being, social connection, and cultural resilience.
Clean Water for All
Delivering water isn't a quick fix. Water infrastructure like treatment plants and piping is expensive and challenging to maintain. There are many ways to bring clean water to people so that it lasts.
Paint Their Future: Empowering Youth Through Arts Education
Art Education is a foundational element of youth education. Peretz Foundation Youth Art Programs serve hundreds of school-aged kids annually, where students learn the fundamentals of art-making through a community lens.
How We Can Help
we help by turning passion into purpose. Whether you’re an artist seeking support, a community member looking for connection, or a donor wanting to make a difference, we offer meaningful ways to engage. Through grants, workshops, cultural events, and educational outreach, we empower individuals to express themselves, preserve heritage, and build bridges across diverse communities. Our programs are designed to uplift voices that often go unheard and to foster a deeper understanding of the human experience through the arts. Together, we create spaces where creativity leads to healing, dialogue, and transformation.
