Speer Dream Foundation Grants Half a Million to Local School

The Speer Dream Foundation grants award to Keswick Christian School

The Speer Dream Foundation is supporting Keswick Christian School and their Athletics Complex Renovation Campaign as part of the Foundation’s inaugural grant disbursement. Keswick Christian School is one of over twenty local nonprofits in a $2.3 million grant disbursement.  

Combined with academics, art, and spiritual formation, athletics help turn students into the well-rounded individuals who learn, grow, and lead by example. Keswick Christian School’s belief in a balanced and well-rounded development of each student aligns with the core values of Speer Dream Foundation and their commitment to creating meaningful and lasting improvements to the Tampa Bay community.

The renovation is not just a facility upgrade; it’s a commitment to developing future leaders. Enhanced facilities will provide students and athletes with state-of-the-art resources, creating an environment that encourages active participation in sports. Engaging in sports teaches valuable life skills such as teamwork, discipline and leadership.

“There is more to athletics than competing, especially at Keswick. Leadership skills are developed on the field but, most importantly, relationships are formed and developed,” shared Nick Stratis, Superintendent, Keswick Christian School. “Keswick is about community, about relationships. Today, we are thankful for our relationship with Speer Dream Foundation and their heart and passion for leadership development.”  

Providing support to nonprofit organizations in the Tampa Bay region, Speer Dream Foundation seeks to address critical community needs while empowering and enabling individuals.  The Foundation’s four focus areas are education, military and first responder assistance, medical support and community outreach. The grant portal is currently open with their next disbursement of grant funds in December.
