This isn't just another fundraising campaign. The Giving Bridge is a movement of people who understand that recovery thrives when we build connections. Your bridge crossing—whether it's a famous landmark or a simple footbridge in your neighborhood park—becomes a powerful visual reminder that with support, we can all reach the other side of our most difficult challenges.
Please help me support The Phoenix by making a donation through my page. The process is fast, easy and secure. Thanks so much for your support... and please don't forget to send this page to any friends you think might be interested in donating!

I started showing up to The Phoenix because someone I loved was struggling and I didn't know what else to do. I thought I was there to help. Turns out I needed it just as much. Recovery doesn't happen in isolation. It happens in a gym at 6am when someone you just met is cheering you on. It happens on a trail when you're too tired to think about anything but putting one foot in front of the other. It happens in a parking lot after a workout when the conversation goes longer than it should and nobody wants to leave. That's what The Phoenix builds. Not just programs. Not just events. The kind of community that makes you want to show up even when you don't feel like it, and keeps you coming back because something in you knows it matters. I'm fundraising for The Giving Bridge because I've seen what happens when people have access to this community and what happens when they don't. The difference is real and it's worth fighting for. If you've been touched by addiction, recovery, or the people navigating both, you already know why this matters. If you haven't, trust me when I say your donation does more than you think. Every dollar goes toward keeping The Phoenix free and accessible for anyone with 48 hours of sobriety. No barriers, no cost, no catching up. Just show up. Help me build the bridge.
