🌱 Growth. Progress. Purpose.

As the year winds down, we’re reflecting on all that’s happened — and how far we’ve come together. From moving to a new location, to welcoming Anna Hover as our new Executive Director, to hosting our first Annual Hot Dish Cook-Off, this year has been full of milestones that reflect the heart of Silver Sobriety: connection, compassion, and community.

For over a decade, Silver Sobriety has helped older adults find freedom in recovery — planting seeds of hope and nurturing lives through support, education, and understanding. None of this would be possible without the generosity of our community.

With today being Day, we’re reminded that your support doesn’t just sustain our mission — it transforms lives. Financial aid made possible through donor contributions gives older adults the chance to reclaim their lives, rebuild their confidence, and rediscover joy in sobriety.

Here’s to continued growth, steady progress, and the shared belief that recovery has no age limit. Together, we make healing possible. 🌟 https://www.givemn.org/donate/silversobriety
