Why This Breakfast Matters

This MLK Jr. Day, we’re gathering for more than a meal—we’re gathering for a mission.
Join community leaders, educators, business owners, faith communities, and change-agents for an uplifting morning of reflection, recognition, and recommitment to the values Dr. King championed: service, justice, unity, and courageous leadership.
This experience will inspire you to listen deeper, lead stronger, and leave committed to building a better community—together.

OUR COMMUNITY IMPACT

Scholarship + Global Restoration

A highlight of the morning will be the presentation of a scholarship award to a graduating high school senior, celebrating promise, perseverance, and purpose.
In addition, a portion of the proceeds will support the rebuilding of a school in Jamaica following the devastation of a recent hurricane, extending compassion beyond borders and turning celebration into tangible impact.

Your seat helps a student soar—and helps a school stand again.
