A special shout-out goes to Ethan Miller, who, along with 10 cross country teammates and 8 other dedicated members of The Oxbridge Thunderwolves Chapter of STUDENTS Speak Up for Kids, came together to make a difference this Halloween. Their team organized and assembled 30 thoughtful gift bags for foster children, ensuring that these kids felt included and celebrated during the holiday. Each team member brought their unique skills to the project—whether it was designing, organizing supplies, or putting together the bags—making the event not only successful but also deeply meaningful. Their efforts displayed the power of collaboration and highlighted what young leaders can achieve when they work together with a shared purpose.

The Spanish River Sharks Chapter of STUDENTS Speak Up for Kids, led by Sofia Scher, spread holiday cheer by turning donated Halloween candy into hand-decorated Thanksgiving goodie bags, showcasing youth leadership and generosity.

Shoutout to Julia Zapson and the Olympic Heights Lions Chapter of STUDENTS Speak Up for Kids for spreading Halloween joy by assembling 70 festive goodie bags for children in need! #SpeakUpForKids #HalloweenKindness #YouthVolunteering
