"I thought I was going to die in the clutches of my addiction."

Why your support matters

Why I give to Hazelden ... MikeHazelden's support for those who suffer from addiction spans an individual's entire journey through recovery. Beyond treatment in our centers, Hazelden also provides the necessary tools for lifelong successful recovery. As a nonprofit organization, Hazelden relies on the gifts from our generous donors to help us continue this vital work. 

Read what a Hazelden alumnus, Mike, has to say about his gratitude for the opportunity he received:

Dear Hazelden donor,

I am writing you in regards to my stay at Hazelden's Center City campus. I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to meet and spend time with the world's best addiction counselors. I thought I was going to die in the clutches of my addiction. The staff worked with me and I was given a very generous scholarship. If it were not for that, I don't know where I would be today.  Thanks to very caring and understanding people, I am back on the road to recovery. The staff and peers at Hazelden welcomed me with open arms. They turned my ship around and pointed me back in the right direction. I was able to learn some new things about myself and gained new tools for long term recovery. I will be indebted forever to your services. Thanks to God and Hazelden--I have my life back.

Sincerely,

Mike
