The Annual Dinner is St. HOPE’s only fundraising event of the year and accounts for a significant portion of its operating budget. Thanks to sponsors, staff and friends, as well as an all-star list of keynote speakers, which have included  LeBron James, Charles Barkley, Julius Erving, Magic Johnson, Shaquille O’Neal, Sinbad, John Wooden, Chris Webber, Bill Walton, Jason Kidd, Michael Jordan among others. The Dinner has sold out every year attracting more than 1,000 guests.
