The YMCA of South Florida will be holding its MLK Inspirational Luncheon at Jungle Island, 1111 Parrot Jungle Trail, Miami on January 16 at 11:45 a.m.

The Inspirational Luncheon, presented by Amazon, will feature Dr. Joyce Ladner, civil rights activist and former professor of sociology, provost, and interim president at Howard University as the keynote speaker.

All proceeds from the Y’s Inspirational Celebrations support the “I Have a Dream” Youth
Scholarship Fund which gives students the ability to achieve their dreams and aspirations. From
preschool to college, the Y believes all youth deserve the ability to reach their full potential.

The YMCA will present the Dave W. Cash Youth Leadership Award to two students, one from
Broward County and one from Miami-Dade County, during the breakfast and luncheon. Each
year, the award is presented to students who have embodied the ideals of Dr. King in
advocating for social change in the community and it includes a $2,000 college scholarship to
support their continued education.
