Thank you to those who were a part of the 16th Annual Fred E. Fairfield Business Connections Breakfast and for your continued support of the Yawkey Club of Roxbury.

This year’s theme, 1 Club. 1 Legacy. 5 Generations, came to life through the voices of our young people, alumni, and community leaders. Together, we experienced what the impact of the Club looks like over time.

We’re especially grateful to Commissioner Michael Cox for his keynote, and to our panelists Ayanna Hines, Todd Interdonato, and Khari Thompson for helping bring that story to life.
