35th Annual Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Human Dignity Breakfast @ Town and Country San Diego
Jan 17 @ 6:00 am – 9:00 am

Join us as we pay tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. His words and selfless actions continue to be an inspiration and never-ending call-to-action for tolerance and peace with each new generation.

The Human Dignity Award annually honors an individual or group who have demonstrated extraordinary achievement and commitment in promoting the value and importance defined by the life and legacy of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

We were proud to announce last year’s Human Dignity Award Winner, the San Diego-based Tariq Khamisa Foundation (TKF). The foundation was founded in 1995 after Tariq Khamisa, a 20-year-old college student, was killed by 14-year-old gang member Tony Hicks. Hicks was tried as an adult for murder and sentenced to 25 years in prison.

This event will sell out, so reserve your spot early! Visit https://www.ymca.org/get-involved/events/dr-martin-luther-king-jr-award-breakfast to reserve your table(s) online.
