Kretzer Music Foundation

Kretzer Music Foundation The Kretzer Piano Music Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to bringing the gift of music to children and seniors in our community.

We are passionate about music being a part of every child’s life and believe that any child who desires it, should have access to a musical instrument, therefore positively transforming lives. We provide music performance opportunities where young musicians can share their talents with others. Scholarships are provided to children who cannot afford music lessons and the foundation has donated more

than 25 pianos to children’s charities.

95% of your donation will directly benefit our programs. Since our inception just over eight years ago, we have:

Kretzer Kids, talented young musicians, perform sixty concerts a year in nursing homes, assisted living facilities and children’s hospitals. Donated $ 61,000 to Adopt-A-Family for Project Grow and six Yamaha Keyboards plus a music teacher for formerly homeless children at Adopt-A-Family

Donated over $ 20,000 to Faith's Place, an after-school music program for underprivileged children in Pleasant City providing scholarships for six students to participate in Young Singers of the Palm Beaches and underwriting thirty children to perform in a Music Festival at Universal Studios

Keys to the Cities event where professional artists were chosen to paint 18 pianos that became “playable art” placed from Jupiter to Delray to be enjoyed by anyone who wanted to play them. This event won the Bernays Award for Best Special Event in the South Florida area. Donated pianos to:
- Quantum House
