Scholarships.

Every year, the Creative Waves Foundation has the privilege of awarding scholarships to some of the brightest young talents in our communities. These rising stars inspire us with their drive, accomplishments, and unwavering dedication to their dreams. It’s truly rewarding to know that our support helps open doors for these exceptional students, giving them opportunities to shine and succeed. Together, we’re shaping futures and making a meaningful difference where it’s needed most.

Belle Glade Community

Due to weather, the Enrichment Center in Belle Glade, Florida has been condemned. This facility is vital, as it provides the children of underserved communities with a safe environment for education, creativity, and a hot meal. So far, we have raised the funds to build the Creative Waves Music Room, and are continuing fundraising efforts to complete the Enrichment Center. This program has helped many children graduate high school, receive college scholarships, be drafted in the NFL, and ultimately break the cycle.

Pierre Garçon, who was recently inducted into the Palm Beach County Sports Hall of Fame, came back to Belle Glade to give advice to the students. He attended the Belle Glade After School Program for most of his childhood, and is proof of the amazing work that this program does for the children in the Belle Glade community.
