On July 2, 2023 the city of Chicago experienced extreme weather conditions with high winds and intense rainfall with accumulation up to four feet. Many Chicagoland residents and businesses experienced flooding and other issues because of the rainfall. One of the community areas adversely affected by the inclement weather was the Austin area where, Hope Excel Reaching the World Academy is located. Our Christian school has faced a challenging setback, but we're determined to turn this into an opportunity to create a better future for our children and their families. Your generous contributions will not only restore a physical structure; they'll help us rebuild dreams, lives, and the hopes of an entire community. Let's come together, uplift spirits, and make a lasting impact. Every donation is a step towards a brighter tomorrow. #RebuildWithHope #AustinStrong Below are photos of what was remaining after rainfall on the roof got so heavy that it collapsed on the school.
