Support for Our Community

The Breakthrough Project is committed to empowering people of color across generations by dismantling barriers and fostering resilience through our diverse range of initiatives. From youth and teens to professionals and seniors, we provide essential support and resources that promote personal growth and community transformation.

Our Prom Dress Giveaway is more than an event; it's a catalyst for empowerment. Beyond providing gowns, we instill confidence, ignite hope, and open doors to new possibilities for young women and men. Supported by community leaders like Pastor Frederick Scott Jr. members of Transfiguration Baptist Church and the 16th Police District, we turn dreams into reality with over 100 gowns distributed annually and ongoing mentorship.

Preparing students for success, our Book Bag Drive ensures they are equipped for academic excellence while instilling a sense of readiness and capability. Meanwhile, our Bottle Up initiative ensures the homeless stay hydrated during hot weather, underscoring our commitment to compassion and care.

In partnership with Lights on the Streets led by Tony Fluellen, we extend our impact by providing essential toiletry items to the homeless community, offering dignity and basic necessities.

Our Golden Years Gift initiative provides essential blankets, toiletries, crossword puzzles, and holiday gifts to seniors, enhancing their quality of life and ensuring they feel valued and supported.

Our After-School Program serves as a lifeline for parents navigating the challenges of raising teens. More than academic support, it offers a supportive village environment that fosters hope, self-esteem, and a sense of family. Through tutoring, nourishing dinners, and mentoring, we empower teens (grades 9-12) to thrive academically and emotionally, providing parents peace of mind knowing their children are cared for in a nurturing community.

Join us in making a tangible difference in our community. Your support isn't just a donation — it's an investment in brighter futures and a stronger, more resilient community. Together, let's empower, uplift, and create meaningful change.
