Happy Fourth of July! Today, we celebrate 250 years of American independence, freedom, and the enduring spirit of our nation.

We are grateful for all those throughout history who have sacrificed and fought to protect the freedoms that allow us to celebrate today.

Wishing everyone a safe Independence Day 🇺🇸 by @chrishixon14

Today, we pause to honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country.

Memorial Day is a solemn reminder of the courage, sacrifice, and selflessness of those who never made it home, as well as the families who carry that loss every day.

As a foundation rooted in service, leadership, and community, we are deeply grateful for the freedoms made possible by their sacrifice. We remember and honor them today and every day. by @chrishixon14

Earlier this month, we had the honor of recognizing this year’s Chris Hixon Athletic Scholarship recipients at their schools’ awards ceremonies across Broward County.

RJ Meis – Marjory Stoneman Douglas
Anika Ravi – Cypress Bay
Ayla Kayan – South Broward

Each of these students represents the leadership, perseverance, and heart that Coach Hixon stood for, and we know they’ll continue to carry his legacy forward.
