By: Dr. Matthew Jenkins, DMV A man of many accolades who has cultivated 30-plus years of giving and sharing, the event, produced by Martha Tucker, exuded the theme "Passing Legacy to the Next Generation," "I was so honored to have nearly 300 family, friends, and other leaders in the community come out to pay tribute to my life's principals and values that turned into a successful event," states Dr. Jenkins. "It was exciting to see the proof of my 'game plan for success' in action. I was humbled to feel the pure sincerity of the attendees and the acknowledgment and recognition of my life's work." Positive Possibilities: While guests enjoyed the festivities, they listened intently to Jenkins' wife of 30 years, Roberta Jenkins. She discussed her background, her undying support for her husband, and their commitment to passing the legacy to future generations with the Matthew and Roberta Jenkins Family Foundation, a foundation they established together that provides scholarships for African-American students. After, Doris Robinson, executive director of the CSULB-LBUSD Math Collaborative that sponsors the Matthew and Roberta Jenkins Family Foundation, spoke on her experience with Dr. Jenkins who explained, "Dr. Jenkins doesn't care who you are, he wants everybody to be successful." Other community leaders in attendance included former Congresswoman Diane Watson; Long Beach Schools Superintendent Chris Steinhauser; "I was most appreciative and surprisingly not expecting the level of support and enthusiasm we received for the book," states Roberta Jenkins. "It was such a good feeling to hear the encouragement we received to make sure the book reached young people who were in need of a game plan for success." Roberta continued, "People of all ages feel there is something in the book that is beneficial to them. The life story and the obstacles Matt faced are within themselves a lesson in success." Dr. Jenkins desires to continue elevating urban education by finding the positive possibilities all around and sharing them through education, work ethic, integrity, and ethical human values.
