Greetings, Wonderful Breakthrough Volunteers! You've successfully made it through the horrible drudgery of February. So I'm here to tell you "Happy March"! And what better way to celebrate this blessed month than by volunteering with us out at Breakthrough Urban Ministries? So - check out the meal serving opps we have coming up and let me know if you're planning to come so I can reserve a spot for you. Hope to see you soon!
MARCH MEAL OPPORTUNITIES
Here are the dates for this month's regularly scheduled serving opportunities:
DREAM BIG - CAPITAL CAMPAIGN
Here's an exciting update about the Dream Big campaign. As a reminder, Breakthrough has been working on a campaign to make a huge difference in the lives of people living in Garfield Park and the west side of Chicago by building the FamilyPlex - providing a daycare & preschool, safe places to work out, go to community classes, a cafe and even a conveniently located place to 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.
- Men's Facility Serve - Thursday, 3/14.
- Women's Facility Serve - Friday, 3/15.
(Keep in mind that men volunteers can serve dinner at the women's facility and vice versa. This is more to let you know where to meet us and less to dictate where you should serve.) ;)

Here's the update from Breakthrough's own Bill Curry (via Facebook):
Get your construction hardhat! It's official! The Breakthrough Familyplex will start being built this year. Much work remains, but construction on this 42,000 square foot building should start in September!!!! Gymnasium, classrooms, fitness center, cafe, medical clinic, art/science center...HUGE blessing in our neighborhood!
