About the Fundraiser

Fred Brown Recovery Services provides substance use disorder recovery treatment for hundreds of men and women every year. Formerly incarcerated, addicted, homeless, and other suffering men and women are restored to being fathers and mothers, sons and daughters, and conscientious community members.

Our primary goal this year is to beautify a common area so it is a peaceful and safe place for families to reunite during visitation. Any remaining funds will be used to maintain current homes and further beautification to our treatment facilities.

Our fundraising goal is $150,000.

Fred Brown Recovery Services is a 501(c)(3) non profit (tax ID 33-049-1967.) All donations, tickets, sponsorships and contributions may be tax-deductable. Check with your tax advisor.
