LAMM Industries Launches Foster Dreamzzz: Miami Art Basel Event for Foster Care Emancipated Youth
Foster Dreamzzz and its partners organized a gathering of 200 people at LAMM industries on December 6, 2023. Each guest who attends the Lost Warhol Found Child $1,000 per person event will receive a limited edition Digital Asset as well as a Lamborghini Gold Bottle with the iconic image of Andy Warhol.
The Lost Warhols is an iconic image of Andy Warhol shot by Karen Bystedt that is part of a collection featured in The Andy Warhol Museum, MoMA Oslo, Hearst Tower, and many other museums and private collections around the world. Bystedt will showcase a new future for her Warhol portraits in a Pop Up Art Gallery that collaborates contemporary street and fine artists interpreting her images in their own artistic language inside LAMM Industries newly built sound lounge; whose products have simply been dubbed, the world’s best audio electronics. Additionally, the same night we will make available 2,000 Exclusive Digital Collectibles online for Project Contributors to purchase for $300 a piece during our modern day influencer driven telethon powered by Mozverse.
The Lost Warhol Found Child event is a celebration of Foster Dreamzzz announcing the production of its solution-based full length documentary feature film spotlighting the challenges and triumphs of foster care youth aging out of the system, as well as a new free transitional housing initiative benefiting youth recently emancipated from foster care. Foster Dreamzzz received vacant lots of land in Liberty City to develop the housing project.
The event is being hosted by Zion Clark who was born into the foster care system with a rare birth defect called Caudal Regression Syndrome that left him without legs. Zion spent 17 horrific years in the Foster Care system - since then he has become a Professional Athlete, Mental Health Advocate, Social Influencer, an All-American wrestler, an MMA fighter, a Guinness World Record holder, the subject of an EMMY Award winning Netflix documentary, an author, and an internationally acclaimed speaker making him an inspiration to millions of people around the world.
Each year, more than 400,000 children are accounted for in the foster care system in the United States. Of those 400,000, around 20,000 age-out of the foster care system each year falling vulnerable to becoming victims of homelessness, incarceration and sex trafficking.
Here are alarming fast facts:
20% of children in foster care become homeless after the age of 18
60% of child trafficking victims have spent time in foster care
80% of inmates incarcerated in U.S prisons have spent time in foster care
“This project is a significant step forward in our mission to support and empower young adults who have aged out of foster care, ensuring they have a safe and stable place to call home and a place to live their best life”, said Foster Dreamzzz Founder, Allen J. West. We are so grateful for the alliance with the Lost Warhols, the Lamborghini Estate, LAMM Industries, Mozverse and the Revolution 93.5 Radio station in supporting this significant launch.
