Wellington Speech & Debate is supported through generous donations by The Samuel M. and Alma Catsman Foundation, Inc.

Overseeing the Samuel M. and Alma Catsman Foundation are Wellington Speech & Debate alumni parents Eilleen & Glenn Dempsey, whose children – Patrick ‘99, Kristen ‘01, and Katie ’03 – were members of Wellington Speech and Debate. Their support allowed students to compete at both the 2022 Florida Forensic League Varsity State Championship and 2022 Florida Forensic League Novice State Championship at no cost to students, and will help reduce the cost of overnight tournaments in 2022-23.
