UPCOMING PROJECTS AND INITIATIVES

Fall 2022 - Spring 2023

In the 2022-23 school year, The Zora Foundation will focus our efforts on projects and initiatives dedicated to raising awareness around discriminatory issues in the effort to combat our country’s inherent bigotry and to honor the works towards positive change.

We believe that social justice advocacy through creative mediums helps fight prejudice by highlighting different perspectives and experiences through artistic means. Our hopes are that our initiatives this year will not only inform our communities about a range of social discriminatory issues but also help construct a more holistic and positive narrative around the importance of community awareness as well as the humanity of those combating discriminatory challenges.
