Please join us as City Year Detroit and our Ripples of Hope co-chairs Mayor Dave Bing and First Lady Yvette Bing honor Robert Bobb, Emergency Financial Manager for Detroit Public Schools, with our "Idealist in Action" award. We will be celebrating the work and dedication of City Year Detroit corps members with a festive night of exceptional cuisine, inspirational speakers and networking. More than 350 distinguished guests, champions, friends and family attend this spectacular event each year.
City Year was founded on the belief that young people can change the world, and each year at our annual Ripples of Hope gala, we honor one individual who shares this belief with the Idealism in Action Award. Mayor Bing himself was honored with this award - City Year's highest - at our 2008 Ripples of Hope dinner! Previous Idealist in Action Award honorees are Gail Warden (2003), Eleanor Josaitis (2004) Tarik Daoud (2005), John Dingell (2006), Shirley Stancato (2007), Dave Bing (2008), and Matt Cullen (2009).
