Open the Door to Great Futures
The Palm Beach Children’s Fund unites philanthropy, trusted community organizations, and proven programs to transform opportunities for children across Palm Beach County through collective impact. By investing strategically in education, health, and youth development programs, we amplify the work of high performing partners, strengthen underserved communities, and create measurable, lasting impact for generations to come.
The Palm Beach Children’s Fund supports education, health, and youth development programs.
By bringing together a network of youth-serving charities, PBCF ensures that event net proceeds support a broader range of education, health, and youth development programs. This initiative is grounded in a collaborative framework that brings community partners together to amplify outcomes for youth, under one roof. These Collective Impact Hubs are in communities throughout Palm Beach County that have long faced intersecting challenges marked by high poverty, low educational attainment, and limited access to early learning and workforce readiness resources.
For the inaugural year, Palm Beach Children’s Fund has selected three event partners: Center for Child Counseling; College for Kids – Take Stock in Children; and FreshRX. Additional charities may also be added if net proceeds exceed projections for the inaugural year.
Center for Child Counseling has been building the foundation for playful, healthful, and hopeful living for children and families in Palm Beach County since 1999. The Center supports thousands of children each year, providing counseling, education, prevention, and training that help children heal from adversity, build resilience, and thrive—while strengthening the adults and systems that surround and support them every day.
FreshRx is a Palm Beach County-based nonprofit dedicated to addressing nutritional inequality by expanding access to fresh, healthy produce and providing nutrition education to underserved communities. Through innovative programs including Farm to Patient and Farm to Kids, the organization empowers individuals and families to develop healthier eating habits while supporting local, family-owned farms.
College for Kids – Take Stock in Children is a school-based college and career readiness initiative that combines scholarships, one-on-one mentoring, and academic and career resources to help low-income, academically qualified students in grades 6–12 reach and complete college or trade certification. Through a guaranteed two-year Florida Prepaid scholarship, dedicated academic coaching, and career readiness resources, the program provides multi-year, wraparound support that follows students from middle school through postsecondary completion, an approach that has produced a 99% success rate and, since 1995, a proven pathway out of poverty for Palm Beach County youth.
Palm Beach International Wine Experience
Palm Beach International Wine Experience (PBIWE) is an ultra-exclusive international charity wine and experience auction that supports a broad ecosystem of education, health, and youth development non-profits across Palm Beach County.
