Rally your community for recovery
From birthday campaigns to marathons to sobriety milestones, our fundraisers are changing lives. 100% of what you raise goes directly to free programming.
No one should face addiction alone. 48 million Americans struggle with substance use disorder. Recovery is possible — but only with community.
Starting a fundraiser is easy.
Create your campaign
It only takes a few minutes to launch your fundraiser. Choose a goal that feels right for you — whether it's $500 or $5,000, every dollar makes a difference.
Tell your story. Share why The Phoenix matters to you. Maybe you're celebrating a recovery milestone, honoring someone you've lost, or simply believe everyone deserves a community to call home.
Add a photo that represents your journey. Personal campaigns with photos raise 2x more than those without.
No experience needed. No minimum to hit. Just your story and a willingness to ask.
Spread the word
Share your campaign with everyone you know — your family, your coworkers, your old college roommate, that friend who's always looking for a good cause.
We'll give you the tools: pre-written emails, text messages, and social posts you can customize and send in seconds.
The secret? Don't just post once and wait. The most successful fundraisers reach out personally, share updates along the way, and aren't afraid to ask more than once.
You'll be surprised who shows up. Sometimes it's the people you least expect.
Watch your impact grow
Every donation hits your page in real-time. You'll see the names, the messages, and the momentum building.
100% of what you raise goes directly to free programming — CrossFit classes, yoga sessions, running clubs, and community events that give people a reason to stay sober.
When your campaign ends, we'll show you exactly where your dollars went: how many events you funded, how many people you reached, and the communities you helped grow.
This isn't just fundraising. It's proof that your community has your back — and that together, you're changing lives.

Everything you need to know about starting and running a successful fundraiser.
Just a few minutes! You can create and launch your fundraiser in under 5 minutes. Simply add your name, set a goal, write a short story about why you're fundraising, and upload a photo. Your campaign page will be live immediately and ready to share.
Yes, the minimum fundraising goal is $100. However, you can set your goal as high as you'd like! We recommend setting a goal that feels achievable — you can always increase it later if you're making great progress.
100% of what you raise goes directly to ensure everyone whoe needs it has access to free programming at The Phoenix. This includes fitness classes, community events, and support services that help people in recovery build sober, active communities. We'll show you exactly where your dollars went when your campaign ends.
Absolutely! You can create a team fundraiser and invite friends, family, or colleagues to join. Each team member gets their own individual fundraising page that contributes to the team's overall goal. It's a great way to multiply your impact and make fundraising more fun.
Not at all! Anyone can start a fundraiser for The Phoenix. Whether you're celebrating a personal milestone, honoring someone you've lost, running a marathon, or simply believe in our mission — we'd love to have you as a fundraiser.
We make it easy! Your fundraiser page has built-in sharing tools for email, text, Facebook, Twitter, and more. We also provide pre-written messages you can customize and send. The most successful fundraisers share their page multiple times and reach out personally to friends and family.
Yes! The Phoenix is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, and all donations are tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law. Donors will receive an automatic receipt for their records.
No worries! There's no penalty for not reaching your goal, and all donations you've collected still go to The Phoenix. Many fundraisers exceed their goals, but even if you raise less than expected, every dollar makes a difference in supporting recovery communities.
Another way to fundraise
Pledge your recovery birthday.
Marcus learned that 48 million Americans struggle with addiction, and that recovery is only possible with community support. So instead of asking for birthday presents, he asked his friends and family to donate $50 for his 5th year of sobriety — and raised $3,800. Enough to fund a full month of free programming in Denver.
Inspired by Marcus? (We are, too.) Consider donating your birthday for recovery.
