I’m turning 45 on August 9th and to mark the occasion, I’m raising funds to support the recovery movement that saved my life.

Over the last several years, we’ve built a growing, powerful movement led by people in recovery, family members, and advocates across the country. We believe in recovery for everyone, everywhere, and we are working every day to turn that vision into reality.

To celebrate this milestone birthday, I’ve set a goal to raise $4,500 to support the Mobilize Recovery movement and help fund direct action, training, and advocacy efforts that empower grassroots recovery leaders.

Our community is saving lives, challenging stigma, and building real solutions to the addiction and mental health crisis. From local projects to national initiatives, your support fuels this work.

Whether it’s lifting up community voices, distributing Narcan, or advocating for lifesaving policy, every dollar goes toward amplifying recovery voices and building a future where recovery is a right for all.

If my story or this movement has ever touched your life, I’d be honored if you contributed to my birthday fundraiser. Let’s show what’s possible when we come together for recovery.

No gift is too small. Every contribution brings us closer to our goal, and closer to a country where recovery is visible and accessible to everyone.
