About Us
Health has always been at the heart of our work.
When circumstances in the county change or new issues arise, we may adjust our strategies to effectively meet those emerging challenges. As an organization, we try to be flexible and adaptable but we never lose our focus on health.
Our vision is for the people of Palm Beach County to experience a better life through quality health.
Our mission is to inspire and fund initiatives that improve the health of our communities.
In its third decade of community investment, the foundation has assets of approximately $160 million and since its inception has awarded $175 million to hundreds of local nonprofit grantees. Every dollar the foundation grants stays in the county to benefit local communities.
Our History
Quantum Foundation was formed in 1995 with the net proceeds from the sale of JFK Medical Center in Atlantis, Florida. We began making grants in Palm Beach County in June 1997.
Our Approach
We promote change by asking the challenging questions to drive action.
We don’t have all the answers, but we work with others to find solutions.
We take strategic risks with our resources and make bold decisions in fulfillment of our vision & mission.
We take our work seriously and enjoy doing it.
