Fresh Start Recovery Centre has reached a milestone – one day at a time, we have achieved 30 years! 

 

Over the last 30 years, Fresh Start has grown and evolved from a small organization in the south part of Calgary to a community serving clients from across Alberta, the NWT and other parts of Canada.  We now provide treatment and post-treatment services at a number of facilities in Calgary and Lethbridge.  

 

In our first 30 years, Fresh Start has helped tens of thousands of people – including people directly affected by addiction who are now on their journey of recovery, and encompassing countless family members, employers, friends and community members who have also been impacted. 

 

We have done this with the support of hundreds of individuals, foundations, companies and government sources. We are eternally grateful for the generous support of our community!  

 

To celebrate our 30th Anniversary, Fresh Start Recovery Centre is launching a fundraising campaign with a goal of raising $500,000. The best way to celebrate our history is to set our sights on the future and we are already looking ahead to our 50th anniversary.  Achieving our $500,000 goal will get us started on the next 20 years of providing life-changing service to people affected by addiction.   

 

We ask all of our supporters to help us celebrate our first 30 years by giving $30…$300…$3,000…$30,000…  

Every gift will help us toward our Vision of Every individual, recovery for life and Mission of recovering lives by housing, treating and supporting people affected by addiction.  

 

We have received a very generous matching pledge of $200,000 from the Matt Rumpel Family Foundation, Lexus of Calgary, Stampede Toyota, Charlesglen Toyota, Cochrane Toyota, and Lexus of Royal Oak. All donations to the campaign up to the first $200,000 will be matched dollar for dollar.
