Club Esteem Inc.

🎓✨ Congratulations to Joshua Dawkins, another shining star in Club Esteem's Class of 2026!

A proud Palm Bay Magnet High School graduate, Joshua earned his diploma with honors and a 3.5 GPA — and he's just getting started. This fall, he'll pursue a path in medicine with his sights set on becoming a travel nurse, alongside studies in business.

Reflecting on his time with us, Joshua shared: "Club Esteem has been a great opportunity for growth and the responsibilities needed to be successful in the future."

Joshua's hard work has already opened doors. He's a proud recipient of a scholarship from the Melbourne Rotary Club, and during his time at Club Esteem he completed Drone Safety training and earned his FAA Part 107 Remote Pilot Certification through our Sankofa Circle partnership!

Joshua, your Club Esteem family is beyond proud of all you've accomplished. The world needs more compassionate leaders like you — go soar! 💙🩺✈️

🎓✨ Congratulations to Keara Williams, a PBHMS graduate and longtime Club Esteem student who has been with us since elementary school!

Keara is an honor roll student who will attend Eastern Florida State College this fall, where she plans to pursue her dream of becoming a nurse. She says she is thankful for the opportunities Club Esteem has provided, including lifelong friendships and growth in her social, leadership, and academic skills.

Keara has also given back as a Teen Tutor at Club Esteem and will spend this summer working as a camp counselor with the City of Melbourne Parks & Recreation and Golf.

We are so proud of you, Keara! Your Club Esteem family is cheering you on every step of the way.

🎓 Presenting the Club Esteem Class of 2026! 🎓

Before we highlight each of our amazing graduates individually, we want to take a moment to celebrate this powerhouse group as a whole. Meet Keara, Joshua, A'marion, Ashawnti, and Mari’elle!

All proud graduates of Palm Bay Magnet High School, this cohort represents the very best of dedication, leadership, and community. Together, they boast impressive GPAs, continuous honor roll achievements, scholarships, and valuable industry certifications in everything from OSHA and Construction to Early Childhood Education.

From students who have been with us since the first grade to outstanding Teen Tutors giving back to the next generation, they have truly made their mark on Club Esteem. During their time with us, they’ve explored STEM, mastered drone safety, built lifelong friendships, and developed the academic and social skills needed to conquer the world.

Whether they are heading off to college, stepping into mechanical engineering, pursuing nursing and psychology, or enlisting in the U.S. Army, we know they are destined for greatness. We couldn't be prouder of the young adults they have become!

🌟 Stay tuned over the next few weeks as we share individual spotlights on each of these remarkable young leaders! 🌟

Happy Higher Education Day! 🎓

At Club Esteem, we believe every student deserves the support, confidence, and resources to dream big and take the next step toward their future. Through college readiness, mentoring, and encouragement, we’re proud to help prepare students for success in higher education and beyond.

These are just some of the colleges and universities our students have matriculated to — and we couldn’t be prouder of their journeys.

Honoring and remembering the brave men and women who have given their lives in service to our country. This Memorial Day, we pause with gratitude, respect, and remembrance.

Members of L3Harris SWIM — Space Women in Manufacturing — and a few of their spouses joined us to spruce up our Community Garden and help with summer planting. They did an amazing job! 🌱

Special thanks to Nikki Gibson for initiating this project. We are also grateful to have received a LIFT grant to purchase supplies that will help us sustain the garden through the harsh summer months and into the fall. We can’t wait to see our fruits, veggies, and herbs grow!
