Congratulations, ACE Academy

Congratulations to ACE Academy (Clarence Dancer, Jr, Marcus Harden and WIllie Seals, III) for receiving the 2025 Mountaintop Award in Education at The MLK Prayer Breakfast on Monday, January 20, 2025.

Over 60 years ago, Dr. King said ‘I Have a Dream’ to 250,000 gathered for the March on Washington. This Dream was set between a perpetual reality of loss and hate, among struggle and resistance. His speech sparked a movement in Seattle, gathering with the values of unity, justice, and love inspired to endure.

The mission of the MLK Prayer Breakfast is to unite businesses, non-profit organizations, and church families to celebrate Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s spiritual legacy. We honor community education, business, and community leaders who model Dr. King’s work in unity, justice and love within their reach. 

The Annual Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Prayer Breakfast  is presented by the MLK Prayer Breakfast Planning Committee, MLK Breakfast Business Advisory Committee, Urban Impact and the following community partners: C3 Leaders, King County Youth Chaplaincy, Olive Crest, Seattle Pacific University John Perkins Center, Seattle Youth for Christ, World Relief, Fellowship Seattle, Community Passageways and Vision House and Acts on Stage, in cooperation with the Martin Luther King Jr. Celebration Committee.
