At Celebree School of Sudbury, giving back isn’t just something we do—it’s who we are. That commitment was recently recognized at the highest level when our franchise owners, Nick and Nikki Foundas, were honored with the Community Difference Maker Award at the 2025 Grow Big Conference, Celebree School’s annual franchise partner gathering.
This prestigious award celebrates individuals who live out Celebree’s core values of service, leadership, and unwavering community engagement. Among an inspiring group of nominees, Nick and Nikki stood out for their deep compassion and consistent dedication to making a real difference.
A Journey Rooted in Compassion
Nick and Nikki’s story began with a personal challenge—an early parenting journey that ignited their passion for giving back. Long before Celebree School of Sudbury started their journey, they were making an impact, organizing a major donation to a local children’s hospital and setting the tone for the purpose-driven path ahead.
Leadership That Lifts Others
Since starting their journey to open a Celebree School, Nick and Nikki have continued to lead with action and heart. They host free educational opportunities for families, participate in community celebrations, and actively support causes that matter. Their work includes creating scholarships for aspiring educators, building a path for others to grow BIG locally.
Their leadership doesn’t end at their school’s entrance—it extends into the community, where they’ve built strong relationships and fostered meaningful connections that will last for years to come.
A Well-Earned Recognition
The Community Difference Maker Award honors those who go above and beyond—and that’s exactly what Nick and Nikki do every day. Their commitment to growing people BIG and small, both inside and outside the classroom, reflects the very best of what Celebree stands for.
Congratulations on being named the 2025 Community Difference Maker Award winners, Nick and Nikki. Your impact goes far beyond Sudbury, and Celebree School is honored to have you as leaders in our family.
