THE “RECOVERED WITH PURPOSE” 2026 Gala Fundraiser to benefit The Safe Place

Date & Time: Friday, November 13, 2026 | 5:30 PM – 9:00 PM

Location: Hilton Garden Inn

Please join us for a special evening of connection, storytelling, and community as we come together to support the mission of The Safe Place Foundation.

This event is an opportunity not only to hear powerful stories of recovery, but also to meet and connect with our staff, board members, and fellow supporters. We look forward to strengthening existing relationships while building new ones with those who share our commitment to recovery and community impact.

Your support directly advances our mission of creating a safe, supportive recovery environment that empowers residents to develop life skills, take responsibility for their lives, and build a foundation for lasting recovery.

Because of donors like you, men in our program have access to stable housing, accountability, peer support, and the opportunity to rebuild their lives. Your contribution helps individuals move from crisis and instability toward recovery, employment, self-sufficiency, and renewed connections with family and community.

The impact of your generosity extends far beyond the individuals we serve. As residents achieve long-term recovery and become productive, self-supporting members of society, our community benefits through reduced homelessness, lower demand on emergency and social services, improved public health, and a stronger workforce.
