We are deeply grateful to Governor Ron DeSantis and the Florida Legislature for their continued commitment to Florida’s students through the School District Education Foundation Matching Grant Program. This year’s $7 million appropriation—matched dollar for dollar by local education foundations—will support students in every district across the state. These public-private partnerships fund impactful K-12 programs in STEM and CTE, support for struggling learners, increased graduation rates, improved teacher quality, and initiatives that build student resiliency, character and life skills.
Their commitment to education is making a significant impact on student achievement in Collier County during the 2025-2026 school year. Champions For Learning is grateful for their support of our College and Career Preparation Program that equips students with the resources and guidance needed to achieve post-secondary and career success. Thank you for believing in the power of local innovation to improve student outcomes.
