What We Do

It is our mission to help individuals with Substance Use Disorders who are seeking recovery by funding their residential treatment, including transportation and advocacy, so that they can recover their lives and live fully.

Jesus said love one another as I have loved you.  Our addicted brothers and sisters need help.  We passionately seek those with a substance use disorder who are ready to reclaim their lives from addiction.  We strive to return their dignity and self-worth to them through unconditionally loving, caring, and helping them without discrimination or judgement.  Our vision is to be there to advocate for them on their journey to recovery through providing financial support, transportation, transitioning assistance, caring and love.

How   We Help:
  • Ensure all documentation and personal items necessary for entering treatment are procured.
  • Locate residential treatment center with vacancy and make reservations, paying the center directly for the stay.
  • Provide transportation to the treatment center and assist in check-in.
  • Give Recovery advocates will visit you during your stay, maintaining communication and support.
  • Give Recovery works with you to arrange transitional housing after treatment is completed, picking you up from the center and transporting you to your new housing.
  • We provide the first month rent in sober living while you get on your feet, also providing transportation to and from job interviews, doctor/therapy/probation appointments, and other necessary appointments for the first  month in your new housing.
