Our 24th Annual YMCA of South Palm Beach County Inspiration Breakfast will be held on February 25, 2026 outdoors at the Peter Blum Family YMCA in Boca. This year, we are honored to welcome the inspiring man whose true story is featured in the 2025 film Soul on Fire, a two-time bestselling author of On Fire, and courageous burn survivor... 
 

John O'Leary!

 
John will share his remarkable journey from near tragedy to triumph, offering a powerful reminder of the resilience and strength within us all. 

Chaired by Linda Gunn Paton, this event brings the community together for a time of encouragement and motivation while celebrating the Y's vision and commitment to promoting youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility. Event proceeds support YMCA Financial Assistance for local families, youth and seniors.

The YMCA of South Palm Beach County has branch locations in Boca Raton and Boynton Beach.. For more than 50 years, the Y has been a leader in our community, offering essential programs and services to children, families and older adults regardless of age, income or background.
