In the heart of Kansas City, Mo., 23-year-old Foster Huggins is making a difference in the lives of others through his business, Underwater Fly Zone. Operating from a small room in his basement, Huggins has created a platform for positive change and hope. His latest collection, “Finish Your Race,” features a powerful message that reads, “You came too far to stop now, don’t give up, finish your race.”
This message holds great personal significance for Huggins, as it was inspired by the loss of his best friend Kyle to suicide in 2017. Reflecting on Kyle’s struggles, Huggins realized the importance of reaching out and offering support to those facing their own challenges. Taking control of his pain, Huggins decided to help others by starting a podcast and creating merchandise. The response has been overwhelming, with many individuals sharing stories of how wearing his shirts has sparked meaningful conversations and brightened their day.
In addition to selling merchandise, Huggins has taken his message of hope and resilience directly to schools, speaking openly about mental health. By sharing his story, he hopes to let others know that they are not alone in their struggles. Despite working out of a modest space, Huggins remains grateful for the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of others. Looking towards the future, he aims to pursue motivational speaking and continue spreading encouragement through his work. With more merchandise on the way, Huggins is committed to reminding everyone to never give up on their dreams.
Foster Huggins is an inspiration for all who face adversity and struggle with mental health issues. Through his business Underwater Fly Zone and personal journey, he continues to spread hope and perseverance with every step forward he takes towards achieving success.
