Email - Volunteer Updates - January 2013

Greetings, Wonderful Breakthrough Volunteers
If you're reading this - you've survived the holidays. We have too. And we're back to serving at Breakthrough. Excuse the belated volunteer email this month - my beautiful newborn lad has kept my mind somewhat occupied. But I'm excited to see you or hear from you this month - so thanks for your patience, all...  ;)

JANUARY MEAL OPPORTUNITIES
Here are the dates and perhaps some details for this month's serving opps:
  • Men's Serve Thursday, 1/10. Gumbo or maybe jambalaya & possibly brownies. I'm going it alone this month as Don is working Thursday night. I could really use some help dishing out delicious (mostly pre-made) morsels. Please take pity on me. (meet out there about 7)  ;)
  • Women's Serve - Friday, 1/18. We're back to our standard menu this month. Last month was awesome, complete with an impromptu Soul Train session.
DREAM BIG - CAPITAL CAMPAIGN
Breakthrough
 has been working on a campaign to make a huge difference in the lives of people living in Garfield Park by building the FamilyPlex - providing safe places to work out, go to community classes and even receive quality, affordable medical care by partnering with Lawndale Christian Health Center. For more information on the campaign, including status updates, and to see how you can get involved,click here.
