What is Breaking Ground?

Breaking Ground is Many Hopes' annual month-long fundraising campaign in which we raise the majority of funding for our home and soon-to-be school. This year's goal is $300,000, and by registering for the 5K and/or helping to fundraise, you and your friends can big a big part of reaching that goal.
