Coral Springs, FL – Over the summer, the Figgers Foundation proudly sponsored the Destined for Greatness program at Coral Springs High School, a groundbreaking initiative designed to support and uplift at-risk students by keeping them on track academically and preparing them for success in adulthood. Founded by Principal Mr. Dixon and led with passion and dedication by Ms. Jones, the program focuses on mentorship, academic support, and real-world preparation to ensure students have every opportunity to thrive. 

As part of the Foundation’s sponsorship, the Figgers Foundation also hosted one of the program’s Wellness Wednesdays sessions. During this interactive event, students engaged in meaningful discussions on college readiness, navigating the admissions process, and preparing for the transition into higher education and beyond. The Foundation’s team emphasized practical skills and encouraged students to see education as a pathway to opportunity, empowerment, and community impact. 

“Our goal is simple: to have 100% of our students graduate from high school,” said Principal Dixon. “I would like to thank the Figgers Foundation for their generous donations. This program would not be successful without their support.” 

The Destined for Greatness program addresses a critical need in today’s educational landscape. Many students face challenges outside the classroom that can hinder their ability to focus on academics and long-term goals. By providing structured mentorship, guidance, and exposure to real-life skills, the program gives these students the tools and confidence to overcome obstacles and pursue their dreams. 

The Figgers Foundation’s sponsorship reflects its broader mission to invest in communities, close opportunity gaps, and create pathways for young people to achieve their fullest potential. Through initiatives like these, the Foundation continues to demonstrate its commitment to building brighter futures for underserved students across Florida. 

“Investing in our young people is investing in our future,” said Freddie Figgers, Founder of the Figgers Foundation. “Every student deserves a chance to succeed, regardless of their circumstances. We are proud to stand alongside Coral Springs High School, Principal Dixon, and Ms. Jones to ensure students not only graduate but are prepared to excel in college, careers, and life.” 

The collaboration between the Figgers Foundation and Coral Springs High School serves as a model for how schools and community organizations can work together to transform lives. By combining resources, mentorship, and a shared vision, the partnership ensures that at-risk youth are not left behind but instead given the guidance, encouragement, and support necessary to succeed. 

As the Destined for Greatness program continues, both the school and the Figgers Foundation remain committed to its expansion and impact. With a focus on mentorship, academic support, and wellness, the program aims to grow stronger each year, producing well-prepared graduates to make meaningful contributions to their communities and beyond.
