Marian University Invites Community to 2027 Martin Luther King Jr. Community Breakfast

Marian University invites community members to come together for its annual Martin Luther King Jr. Community Breakfast on Monday, January 18, 2027, from 7:30 to 8:30 a.m. in the Stayer Center Dining Room. The event celebrates the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and recognizes those who are making a meaningful difference in the Fond du Lac area and surrounding communities.

A highlight of the annual breakfast is the presentation of the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Spirit Award, which honors an individual or group whose actions reflect Dr. King’s enduring commitment to equality, social justice, and opportunity for all. The award recognizes those who go above and beyond to expand access, serve others, and strengthen their communities through meaningful and lasting contributions.

Marian University encourages community members to nominate individuals or organizations whose work embodies these ideals and helps create a more inclusive, equitable, and compassionate community. Nominations must be submitted by Friday, December 4, 2026.

Registration and nomination forms are available on theMartin Luther King Jr. Community Breakfast webpage.

Individual tickets are $20, and tables of eight are available for $150. Community members are encouraged to attend, celebrate the legacy of Dr. King, and recognize those who are helping carry his vision forward.
