Former Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice and San Francisco 49ers owner John York will speak to 100 middle school boys at Stanford University this morning.
Rice and York will talk about the importance of balancing athletics and academics as part of a four-week Youth Impact Program, a partnership between Stanford and the 49ers to help at-risk boys learn about community leadership and football.
The boys range in age from 9 to 12 years old and largely come from underserved communities in East Palo Alto and East San Jose.
Rice and York will appear at 10:45 a.m. at Stanford’s Kissick Auditorium, located at 641 Campus Drive.
