Brittany Hebert Franklin, CEO and Founder of Sky High for Kids

Brittany has never met a challenge she wasn’t prepared to face head-on. Her early years in Louisiana produced many hardships, yet through adversity, she clung to her rallying cry, “Do things bigger than yourself,” and has continued to raise the bar for herself each year.
 
At 21, Brittany was approached to raise $10,000 for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Brittany remembered her life-changing trip only five years prior. Inspired by the challenge, Franklin contacted a few friends and hosted a sporting clay tournament in hopes of raising the $10,000. That day, they raised $50,000.
 
In 2018, Brittany became Sky High for Kids Foundation’s full-time CEO. Today, she is leading a team raising millions of dollars to help fund pediatric cancer research. Brittany’s leadership and passion has led Sky for High Kids to donate more than $25 million to research institutions and causes, including $5 million in 2022 alone.
 
Brittany lives in Houston with her husband, Bobby Franklin, their daughter, and their two dogs, Daphne and Tank.
