For the first time, Recovery Dharma Birmingham will have an info-table at the END HEROIN BHAM WALK 2020! We have lost too many of our friends, family members and coworkers to addiction - especially to heroin and fentanyl addiction. We are participating in this event and raising funds for End Heroin Bham and Addiction Prevention Coalition because we want to help alleviate the suffering of addiction by: (1) introducing those in recovery and possibly those in active addiciton to our program, (2) helping to fund resources for those who seek help, and (3) helping to fund resources to help prevent more people from becoming addicted.
This is a wonderful opportunity for us to practice the skillful action of GENEROSITY with our money and/or time, as well as a huge opportunity to let thousands in recovery easily learn more about us. The organizers aren't charging us as a sponsor since we are a nonprofit. They have, however, asked us to spread the word and do some FUNDRAISING. So please pitch in to the best of your ability by doing the following:

ABOUT RECOVERY DHARMA
We are a peer-led movement using Buddhist practices and principles to overcome substance and process addictions of all kinds through meditation, self-inquiry, and community. We offer a complete program of recovery, including our own literature and five weekly meetings in the Birmingham area. We welcome those new to recovery as well as those who practice other recovery programs (12-step, SMART, etc). Some of our members choose to practice only our program, while others find our approach to be a helpful supplement to their main program of recovery. ALL ARE WELCOME!
MEETINGS: Fridays@6pm, Sundays@6:30pm (Shambhala Center) & Saturdays@10:30am, Mondays@6pm, Wednesdays@7pm (C3 at Moore Institute)
