Professions Across Tourism & Hospitality

Investing in People. Strengthening The Palm Beaches.

The PATH Foundation is built on a shared vision: a thriving tourism and
hospitality industry that creates lasting opportunities for the people who call The
Palm Beaches home.

As we begin this work, our focus is on expanding pathways to meaningful
careers, supporting students and local small businesses, and bringing education,
industry, and community partners together. Through philanthropy and
collaboration, we aim to strengthen our workforce and help tourism’s success
translate into a better quality of life for our community.

Together, we can help shape a stronger future for The Palm Beaches.
