Hi, my name is Anthony Wilson and as many of you know, I am on my long-term journey with sobriety. Nearly seven years ago, I went to treatment in another state and committed to sober living because I needed structure and a safe environment. While in treatment, I interviewed with Bryan, the owner of Independence Lodge. His sober living homes in Croydon and Bensalem have helped thousands of men like myself transition back into society. Without Independence Lodge, I truly believe I would not be alive today. It gave me the foundation and maturity I needed to start a new life.

Recently, tragedy struck when the home on Dixon Ave in Croydon burned down. Seven men—just like I once was—lost the first place they could call home, along with all of their belongings. Bryan has always poured his heart and resources into making these homes welcoming and supportive, never hesitating to invest in upgrades so residents could feel at home. Now, these men are in desperate need of help as they try to rebuild from nothing.

I'm reaching out to ask for your support. Every donation will go directly toward replacing the belongings lost in the fire and helping these men get back on their feet. Your generosity will also support Bryan Kennedy, who has dedicated his life to helping others find hope and stability. Please consider giving what you can to help us through this difficult time. Thank you for your kindness and support.
