Kim Denu, Westmont provost and dean of faculty, serves as the keynote speaker for the annual Santa Barbara Family YMCA Good Friday Breakfast, “Keeping Hope Alive,” on April 3 beginning at 7:30 a.m. at the Hilton Santa Barbara Beachfront Resort. Tickets, which cost $70 each, may be purchased at ciymca.org.
The inspirational event features a morning of music and community fellowship to honor the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Denu, who joined Westmont in 2022, is a two-time Fulbright scholar and ordained minister who previously served as interim director at the District Church in Washington, D.C.
Established in 1887, the Channel Islands YMCA has seven branches serving more than 57,000 people each year in Santa Barbara and Ventura. The YMCA recently opened the Mission House, a new transitional home in Santa Barbara, offering young adults experiencing homelessness a place to rebuild and gain independence.
