The Prayer Breakfast will take place Tuesday, March 12 at the Boca Resort and Club from 7:30 to 9:30 a.m. “It is a morning of fellowship and fun – strengthening community while fundraising for the Y’s Financial Assistance Program, which allows everyone, regardless of income, the ability to participate in Y programs through scholarships” explained Linda Spielmann, chair of the event.
“We are thrilled to have BB&T, one of the largest financial services holding companies in the U.S., as our presenting sponsor this year,” said Richard Pollock, president and CEO of the YMCA of South Palm Beach County. “We look forward to partnering with BB&T on future endeavors that will engage the entire community.”
“It is an honor to make this contribution to the Prayer Breakfast, and at the same time help our surrounding communities,” said Dale Kahle, Senior Vice President for BB&T Palm Beach County. “Part of our mission is to help make the areas we serve better places to live and we think the Prayer Breakfast is a perfect place to start.”
