South Puget Sound Community College

Martin Luther King Jr. Commemoration 2012

I have the audacity to believe that peoples everywhere can have three meals a day for their bodies, education and culture for their minds, and dignity, equality and freedom for their spirits. I believe that what self-centered men have torn down, men other-centered can build up.

Educate! Inspire! Empower!

True compassion is more than flinging a coin to a beggar; it is not haphazard and superficial. It comes to see than an edifice that produces beggars needs restructuring.
