Transforming Lives and Community Luncheon

SEE EVENT DETAILS
The second annual Transforming Lives and Community Luncheon is scheduled for Thursday May 22, 2014 at the Four Seasons Hotel 11:30 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. Please join us in honoring two individuals who have made extraordinary contributions to their community throughout their lives and continue to do so as they age. Belva Davis and Henry Safrit, MD are truly deserving of this recognition.

Ms. Davis is well known for her impressive and groundbreaking career as a journalist in California. For nineteen years she hosted KQED’s This Week in Northern California. Since retiring Ms. Davis has written a book called Never in My Wildest Dreams. Commenting on the book, Gloria Steinem said “Belva Davis has lived this country’s history as only a brave black woman could and has witnessed it as a journalist with a world-class head and heart.”

Dr. Henry Safrit, an accomplished San Francisco endocrinologist, is highly regarded for establishing the Meritus College Fund which awards scholarships to high school students who often fall below the cutoff for other financial award programs. In 2008, Dr. Safrit started SF Achievers, which focuses specifically on supporting young African-American males who are striving for success.
