Adams Hope -CEO

The passing of my brother Adam in 2019 from a heroin overdose developed after a friend of his reached out 2 weeks after my brother had passed away and was begging me for advice and help getting into a treatment center this was Easter Sunday 2019. I did get him into Maryhaven in Columbus , Ohio , provided gas money to get him there. This sparked something in me that despite my pain, others like my brother was still struggling and I wanted to turn my pain into a purpose and not let my brother just simply die . He was more than his addiction. He deserved to be remembered and others deserved to have someone they could reach out to when they felt they had no one else and assist them into treatment. The first event was held August 2019 only 4 months after I lost Adam, shirts was sold to raise money, we had a walk down through town to raise awareness , we had speakers that was in recovery and we was spreading hope. To date Adam's Hope has held 8 of these events each August and each year it has grown by leaps and bounds with recovery speakers, food trucks, bounce houses, dunk tanks, memorial moment of silence, walk and so much more. Adam's Hope has directly helped with transportation, hygiene, clothing as well as placement into rehabs. We provided Christmas each year to a family , hygiene drop to 2-3 rehabs every April in his memory , have hosted pancakes with easter bunny and egg hunts, car washes, supported youth events in the community. I have spoke in prisons and multiple other events. narcan distribution. Ask me for more information if you havnt heard about us or attended one of the events or find us on facebook for more of what we have done and continue to do.
