A $6 MILLION fundraiser is underway to re-open the home where Muhammad Ali grew up -- in the hopes it will "serve as a beacon of hope and remind visitors greatness can begin anywhere."
Ali's parents bought the 1,200 square foot home in Louisville, Kentucky back in 1947.
The home originally only had 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom for Ali, his parents and his younger brother Rahman. The entire family lived in the home until 1961.
The home had fallen apart over the years until it was purchased in 2012 by attorney George Bochetto and real estate investor Jared Weiss.
