Are You Ready To Dream Big?

Breakthrough Urban Ministries invites you to become a part of a big dream.

Imagine a place where the odds of you going to prison or becoming an unwed teenage mother were higher than going to college? Imagine being part of a community where random acts of violence and drug abuse were significantly higher than the national average? Where the words ‘community ’ and ‘dream’ meant little more than empty promises.

Now imagine a program that takes those statistics and slashes them in half. Imagine an opportunity to be a part of a dream so big it aims to transform a neighborhood from one of despair to a thriving community that anyone would want to raise their family in.

Breakthrough’s Dream Big capital campaign is building its biggest dream yet: The Breakthrough FamilyPlex. This facility will take Breakthrough’s dream to the coming generations.

Are you ready to dream big? Read on to find out more about Breakthrough Urban Ministries’ effective approach to ending the cycle of poverty and how you might have a breakthrough of your own.

Breakthrough Urban Ministries demonstrates the compassion of Christ by partnering with those affected by poverty to build connections, develop skills, and open doors of opportunity.
