Pepin Family Foundation

  The Pepin Family Foundation strives to engender a positive difference in the lives of our community’s children and families through education and healthcare. We aim to build a better tomorrow through lasting friendships with community partners who will help to serve the most at-risk populations of children and young adults , serving their educational needs at the Pepin Academies. Additionally, we are dedicated to the quest of eradication of heart disease through research, awareness and delivery of revolutionary patient-centered care at the Pepin Heart Institute. We built a clean and intuitively designed website to showcase Pepin’s contributions to the Tampa Bay community through their various charities, such as the Pepin Heart Hospital, and the Pepin Academies. The design includes a front-page slider with photographs of the Pepin family, members of the community, and doubles as advertising space for upcoming events. The website also links out to all the Pepin Foundation social media channels.​ Website The Pepin Heart Hospital was founded in 1986 with $500,000 matching pledges by Tom & Arthur Pepin, the Pepin Heart Hospital & Dr. Kiran C. Patel Research Institute, is the most advanced specialty, digital hospital in the Southeast and has emerged as a leader in cardiovascular care.
