Impact

Since the foundation began, we have supported many arts programs and organizations hard hit by COVID-19 funding challenges. As students, art teachers, communities and institutions came together in common concerns, the Ramos Family Foundation worked in focused ways to create pockets of impact to contribute to the ripple effect and sustaining vision of creating access to an arts education for all youth.
