Breakthrough Urban Ministries would like to extend a special thanks to those who attended the Dream Big Capital Campaign launch last Saturday. Over 200 volunteers and over 1500 men, women and children, gathered in East Garfield Park Chicago at the corner of Carroll and Kedzie to celebrate and unite in the DreamBIG vision to build the Breakthrough FamilyPlex. You can check-out picture of the event on the Breakthrough Flickr page.
Attendees engaged in fun, fellowship and a variety of games and activities. The event included performances from the popular Jesse White Tumblers and local choirs, raffles and interactive giveaways from WGRB radio host Pastor John Hannah, who served as MC.
The honorable Jesse White, Illinois Secretary of State, Aldermen Ed Smith and Walter Burnette, and Vance Henry, Deputy for the city of Chicago, were among key local dignitaries present to express their support for the vision of the Breakthrough FamilyPlex.
With the success of Saturday’s kick off, the DreamBIG capital campaign is officially launched! We are forging ahead with our Capital Campaign to make the Breakthrough FamilyPlex a reality. Please consider how you can contribute to the DreamBIG capital campaign. Visit the Dream Big website (www.breakthrough.org/dreambig) weekly for DreamBIG updates!
Thanks again to everyone who made this event possible!
