Living Better in San Diego
1/10/2010
Martin Luther King Jr. and baseball great Jackie Robinson in 1962.
 The 25th annual YMCA of San Diego County Martin Luther King Jr. Human Dignity Award Breakfast is this Friday, January 15th, at the Town and Country Resort Hotel in Mission Valley from 7 to 9 am.
Making some time to talk more about this year's breakfast on Living Better In San Diego is Michael Brunker, the Executive Director of the Jackie Robinson Family YMCA in Southeast San Diego.
The Jackie Robinson Family YMCA serves more than 25,000 individuals each year in a community of over 72,000 households, and the YMCA's fitness programs, technology center, and outdoor areas give families a place to belong and recreate. The YMCA also hosts free community and holiday-related events, works with other community agencies to expand outreach, and like many neighborhood organizations, relies upon an army of dedicated, tireless volunteers.
This year's keynote speaker at the Martin Luther King Human Dignity Award Breakfast is the Rev. Samuel "Billy" Kyles, a civil rights activist and witness to the assassination of Dr. King in April 1968, when King was in Memphis defending the rights of striking sanitation workers.
Tickets for the breakfast are $35 dollars each, or $350 dollars for a table of 10. Click HERE to order.
For more information, call (619) 264-0144, extension 104. You can also purchase your tickets in person at the Jackie Robinson Family YMCA at 151 YMCA Way, San Diego, CA 92102.
