1. In one sentence, what is Break the Grey?
A. Break the Grey exists to share the love and hope of Jesus Christ by serving, supporting, and encouraging families facing childhood cancer and other life-threatening illnesses.
2. What does Break the Grey actually do? What are its plans for the future?
A. The mission of Break the Grey is currently accomplished by throwing parties on the childhood cancer units of two different children's hospitals and handing out “bundles” of age-appropriate toys/gifts to the patients and siblings as well as gift baskets to the parents. We are continuing to seek God’s will for the future and go in the direction in which He guides us. However, we continue to strive to meet the needs of families facing childhood cancer or other life-threatening illnesses in the meantime. We do a lot of other little things such as getting in touch with individual families and helping connect them with specific services or resources upon their request.

4. How was Break the Grey started?
A. Break the Grey initially began with a student named Sarah Boesing. Sarah spent a lot of time on the combined kidney/cancer unit at her local children’s hospital as she was born with a terminal kidney disease. God provided a cure for her when she was given 6 months to live by way of a kidney transplant. After her transplant she felt God leading her to work with other children and families facing cancer or other life-altering illnesses. Initially, Sarah developed Break the Grey to give back to a place that had given her so much.
