Your tax-deductible donation will help LifeRing reach people who thrive in immersive, local recovery communities.

Get Out of the House and Into a Meeting!
You can help start a new LifeRing In-Person Meeting! Your donation of $50 will help fund the cost needed to get a new local meeting up and running.

After three years of lockdown, LifeRing participants are eager to get together to support one another. In-person meeting donations will start trickling back in, but we’re still struggling with the 3-year absence of weekly in-person contributions.

LifeRing needs you to help people in recovery develop local support communities
In-person meetings offer a unique opportunity for people in recovery to experience peer-to-peer support within their own neighborhoods and with their own neighbors. Local community comradery fosters deep accountability and reinforces a person’s desire to stay on their personal recovery path.

Here’s how you can fund a new LifeRing Local Meeting:
Unlike online meetings, in-person meetings are supported by analog handbooks, brochures, physical gathering space and meeting room signage. All of these items require funding.

Your generous contribution will fund a new LifeRing in-person meeting! For each new in-person meeting, the convenor is equipped with an in-person meeting convenor starter kit at a cost of $50. This kit includes:

  • LifeRing Press Books
  • LifeRing Introductory Brochures
  • LifeRing Meeting Stamps for Unique Location Place Information
  • Directional Signs
