SAN DIEGO (KUSI) – The greater San Diego community is invited to pay tribute to the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. during the YMCA’s Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Human Dignity Award celebration on Thursday, Jan. 14, 2021 from 6:00-7:00pm.
Due to the pandemic, the event will take place virtually. To register and/or donate, visit www.ymcasd.org/mlk. All proceeds benefit the Jackie Robinson Family Y, which serves a diverse community in Southeastern San Diego.
Traditionally, this iconic event is a breakfast that kicks off San Diego-area events dedicated to Dr. King’s impact. “We’re excited to continue doing our part to maintain a healthy community by moving our event to a virtual platform this year,” said Anna Arancibia with the Jackie Robinson Family Y. “By going virtual, we’re able to extend an invitation to more San Diegans so they too can feel the magic of this celebration and honor Dr. King’s life and work.”
