Starting Line Breakfast

On March 25, 2009 Youth and Family Enrichment Services (YFES) will be holding its 17th Annual Starting Line Breakfast fundraising event at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Foster City. The Starting Line Breakfast is YFES’ annual fundraising event and accounts for nearly one-fifth of the agency’s private funding. This sit-down breakfast features a keynote address, personal success stories from our clients, and highlights of the agency’s progress over the past year.

At the breakfast we also take the opportunity to thank our loyal donors, and honor organizations that have provided outstanding support over the years. Attendees are able to interact with local business, community and political leaders who are dedicated to making the communities we live in healthy and strong.
