Sharing our story is our primary focus. But we also help many families that are living with the pain of addiction. By providing holiday gifts, meals, furniture and necessities, these families can have a sense of peace and happiness, while their loved ones focus on recovery. In addition, scholarships are provided to students who excel in the classroom, and write powerful essays

about how their life has been

affected by substance abuse

and/or addiction. The pictures

below are of Derek's cousins

who loved their hero, and

they suffered tremendously

during his addiction, and even

greater after. We know first

hand that families suffer from

addiction, too.
