22nd Annual Martin Luther King, Jr. Inspirational Breakfast

Presented by JM Family Enterprises, the Inspirational Breakfast is set for 7:30 a.m. at First Baptist, 301 E. Broward Boulevard in Fort Lauderdale. Every year, the Y’s MLK Inspirational Breakfast and Luncheon unites business, civic and community leaders, drawing an audience of more than 1,400 to honor Dr. King and support the YMCA of South Florida’s “I Have a Dream” Youth Scholarship Fund.

During the breakfast, the YMCA of South Florida will present the Dave W. Cash Youth Leadership Award to a student in Broward County who has embodied the ideals of Dr. King in advocating for social change in the community. The award recipient receives a $2,000 college scholarship supporting their continued education.

Proceeds support future changemakers through the Y’s “I Have a Dream” Youth Scholarship Fund, which empowers youth from preschool to college to reach their full potential. The keynote speaker is Dr. Joyce Ladner, civil rights activist and former professor of sociology, provost, and interim president at Howard University.
