( West Palm Beach , FL)  The second Annual Physicians Talent Showcase raised nearly $55,000 for two local charities.  

Kathi Kretzer of Kretzer Piano Music Foundation in Jupiter presented a check for 80% of the proceeds from the concert to Wendy Tippett, the CEO of Adopt-a-Family of the Palm Beaches.  The money will be designated for their PROJECT GROW which focuses on building social, emotional and educational skills for formerly homeless children who live in the agency’s housing programs.  In the past year, this highly rated organization has helped 543 families have a safe place to live.  Adopt-a-Family’s special project is giving assistance to the family members to help move them to self-sufficiency through training and encouragement. 

The remaining 20% goes to the newly-founded Kretzer Piano Music Foundation, which helps provide music education for underprivileged children  and performance opportunities for young musicians in Palm Beach County . 

Nineteen talented medical doctors presented the concert at the Harriet Himmel Theater in CityPlace in late August to an enthusiastic audience in the sold-out theater.
