Among the many ways you can support Healing Transitions is to become a Recovery Champion. Our Recovery Champions are a select group of individuals, businesses, and foundations who represents our most committed leaders in giving to Healing Transitions. They’re responsible for driving major annual fund donations and building a community where long-term recovery can flourish. Ultimately, their generosity of $5,000* or more opens the doors to recovery and allows us to be an anchor of dignity and hope to our community’s most underserved.
If you’re ready to take your support to the next level, we encourage you to make a donation today or contact the development team to learn more.
THE BENEFITS
As a Recovery Champion, you are the key to ensuring our doors are open as many times as it takes, no matter what. The work we do, the lives we touch, and the difference we are making together is only possible because of your investment. And we want to honor your transformational generosity with tokens of our appreciation.
Here are just a few of the perks you’ll enjoy as a Recovery Champion:
- Annual Gratitude Dinner invitation
- Annual report acknowledgment
- Campus plaque recognition
- Exclusive participant-led campus tour
- Oakwood24 sponsorship

*Additional tokens may be offered depending on the level of your gift, including but not limited to custom participant artwork and priority leadership updates.

AN EVENING OF APPRECIATION
In the spring of 2023, after formalizing our major donor program, we were thrilled to provide our leaders in giving with the appreciation they deserve by honoring them with an inaugural Gratitude Dinner, and the night was magical!
Alumni and staff served (and then joined) this mission-minded group for an evening of celebration and inspiration. Our thanks goes to Board Chair Evelyn Booker, Silver Chippers Gina and Zack Martin, and Keynote Speaker Thomas Sayre for sharing their stories of service, long-term recovery, and the healing power of art.
We’re excited to continue this tradition annually and induct new major donors in the years to come. Thank you for championing recovery for all!
