About Us

The Crockett Foundation believes our kids deserve every opportunity to explore, engage and experience the changing world around them.

Our Mission:

Empowering Broward County’s future leaders

The Crockett Foundation is on a mission to build the future of Broward County, one child at a time.

Since 2002, the Crockett Foundation has positively impacted thousands of children’s lives across South Florida.

Our after school and summer youth development and coding programs have provided middle school students with the support they need to master their toughest academic challenges. These programs enable us to develop future leaders and improve communities. 

With the generous support of our donors, the Crockett Foundation has helped thousands of students in our local communities graduate high school with better grades, new skills, and a fresh and more positive outlook on life.

What We Do and Why It Matters

The Crockett Foundation creates opportunities for youth through education, mentorship, and life-enriching experiences that expand their sense of what is possible.

Through year-round programming, including after-school support, summer camps, and experiential learning, we provide students with the tools, exposure, and guidance they need to grow academically, socially, and personally.

We believe every child deserves access to opportunities that can shape their future. Many of the students we serve face limited access to the resources and experiences that open doors to new possibilities.

By exposing them to new environments, ideas, and role models, we help build confidence, broaden perspectives, and create pathways to long-term success.

Our work is about more than programs. It’s about creating lasting impact, one student at a time.

Students in our programs are proudly raising funds to give more kids access to technology, mentorship, and opportunity. Every dollar creates real opportunity.
