The 21st Annual Cool Gear for the School Year event—hosted by the Jason Taylor Foundation—made back-to-school unforgettable for 15 OYC Miami students. Held at Old Navy, the day began with a high-energy celebration featuring music, meals from Chick-fil-A, and special appearances by the Miami Dolphins Cheerleaders, Miami Heat Dancers, and mascots from both the Dolphins and Marlins.

Adding to the excitement, football players joined in to hype up the students before their big shopping moment. Each youth received a $300 Old Navy gift card and was paired with a personal shopper to select clothing and essentials that made them feel confident, stylish, and ready for success.

We are deeply grateful to the Jason Taylor Foundation for 21 years of incredible generosity and community impact. This annual tradition is about more than new gear—it’s about pride, motivation, and starting the school year with a winning mindset.
