Our 2024 spring fundraiser, held in honor of Aidan’s 21st birthday,  was attended by nearly eighty friends, neighbors and co-workers, and exceeded its fundraising goal of $9,000.

Our fundraising focus this year was Madison’s smallest non-profit recovery center, 5 Door Recovery. Its special mission is to serve people with substance use disorder who lack private health insurance. Mary Haberman, Project Director, spoke about the work of her organization, which is a critical pillar of Madison’s recovery landscape.

Despite scrupulous care, the center operates at a loss, relying on donations to fund the gap. Covering this shortfall secures life-saving, local treatment for those who have the fewest options. This event’s proceeds will fund the 30-day program shortfall for five people.
