BreakIT does not charge to become a member at this time. We strive to offer services to underserved populations and help in lifting them and their communities up. We do however appreciate when a client can contribute what they can now or once they become successful as a way to 'pay it forward'. In addition, we do accept donations, contributions and sponsorships as we are a 501c3 not-for-profit organization.
