The 88 KEYS® Foundation, a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) charitable organization, was founded in 2008 by Steinway Concert Artist LARA DOWNES to expand awareness of and appreciation for classical music. The Foundation provides services and funding for classical music education, research, performances, and artists, to benefit listeners and learners alike. Current projects include an instrument donation program, education and career development for young musicians, and K-12 music residency programs.
