Sacramento Speakers Series announced today that SAFE Credit Union has again agreed to sponsor the upcoming 2015-2016 season. This exciting season starts during Sacramento’s Farm to Fork week with food journalist Michael Pollan on September 29, 2015. The lineup continues with theoretical physicist and science popularizer Dr. Michio Kaku, television anchor and journalist Jane Pauley, retired four star General and one-time candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination Wesley Clark, five time New York Times bestselling author Malcolm Gladwell and former Congresswoman Gabby Giffords and Mark Kelly, her husband, Navy captain and NASA astronaut. Safe Credit Union will be recognized on Tuesday, April 5, 2016 at the Gabby Giffords and Mark Kelly event.
Managing principal and attorney Mitchell Ostwald expressed his pride in the partnership: “SAFE is not only a valuable financial resource for families and businesses in the greater Sacramento region, but also a significant contributor to the community, providing funding for scholarships to college bound high school seniors, to the Academic Decathlon, to the Aerospace Museum, and to KVIE’s “ViewFinder,” the only locally produced series about our community, to name just a few of its many philanthropic and volunteer efforts.”
Looking forward to its 11th season, Sacramento Speakers Series offers an impressive list of leaders, authors, scientists, and visionaries, each chosen on the basis of career achievements, unique expertise in a particular field of endeavor, and ability to communicate their particular passion to the audience. The Sacramento Speakers Series is a community lecture series that provides an open forum for a free discussion of timely and important issues by nationally acclaimed speakers. Ostwald described the series as “an extraordinary community experience that gives our patrons an opportunity to hear about and question renowned and influential people from a wide variety of backgrounds on an even wider variety of topics.”
