New York Times best-selling author Kelly Corrigan and Fleishman Hillard marketing executive Guia Golden will address more than 800 guests at Xavier College Preparatory’s eighth annual X Breakfast on Sept. 24, 2015, on the school’s campus. After the breakfast, both speakers will address Xavier’s entire student body of 1,200-plus young women.

X Breakfast 2015, co-chaired by Xavier parents Tami Christifulli and Susan Westra, will raise proceeds to benefit Xavier’s Legacy of Leadership Capital Campaign, which funds Xavier’s Chapel of Our Lady, Founders Hall, Petznick Field, and the Activity Center renovation. Although the event is free, guests are encouraged to support the school with a financial contribution.
