Plant Bingo on Friday night was an incredible success raising $800 for overdose prevention!

Thank you to Lindsey from Lindsey Krivenki and Katya from AID Plant Sale and Fundraiser for organizing such an exciting event all for a good cause. You both have such a gift for creating fun new ways to engage our community and centering social justice causes.

Thank you to Forest City Brewery for hosting us in such a beautiful space with wonderful food & drinks, immaculate vibes!

Thank you to our friends, our family, our volunteers, and everyone who showed up to support us at a time when we need it.

If you missed the Plant Bingo event don’t worry, this month for Overdose Awareness Day we’ll have plenty of opportunity for you to get involved & take action to save lives!

Today we’re closed for a team mental health day. It’s incredibly important in this line of work that we prioritize rest & give ourselves time to recharge our batteries. Especially in the summer season when our events are doubled up, plus working some of our weekends. We only get so much time to enjoy the weather, so we do what we can to plan some time off.

Next week 27-29th: We will be out of office for staff training & a mini retreat. We’ll still be able for support via phone or dm just leave a message, voicemail, or send a text and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible.

Hopefully you’re able to enjoy this wonderful Cleveland weather as well, just remember to bring your narcan with you whenever you go!
