Be Inspired by Martin & Geony Rucker
At the 2026 Breakfast, we are honored to welcome Martin T. Rucker II and Geony Rucker as our keynote speakers. Together, they share a remarkable story of perseverance, purpose, and passion for serving others.
- Martin Rucker rose from St. Joseph, Missouri to become an All-American tight end at Mizzou and play professionally in the NFL before founding and leading Martin T. Rucker Development.
- Geony Rucker, a former Mizzou volleyball player, is the Founder and President of Value Unconditional, a nonprofit dedicated to helping adult survivors of abuse and assault rebuild their lives.
Their powerful message reminds us that determination, faith, and compassion can transform lives—and communities.
