In its 10th year, ESPN West Palm’s Top 63 Awards have become a staple event among the high school community garnering over 300 athletes, their families, coaches, athletic directors and community leaders. ESPN West Palm is proud to produce this event that has honored the top football student athletes throughout the years including NFL athletes, collegiate athletes and even a Heisman Trophy winner.
The mission of the iTHINK Community Foundation is to improve the lives of children and families in the communities we serve. All proceeds raised from annual icon and candy sales in iTHINK Financial branches along with the Kilometers for Our Community Virtual 5k and other fundraising events were donated directly to the Foundation and used to support causes like local scholarship awards and school supplies for children in need.
Stephen Johnson, Director of the iTHINK Community Foundation stated, “A huge congratulations to Andrew and all of the applicant winners. Andrew demonstrated many achievements and he was very deserving of this scholarship. We wish all of the applicants well in their future studies.
