Help Us Unlock $10,000 in Matching Funds to Launch The Shift Recovery Café Redding

We’re excited to announce that we’ve joined the national Recovery Café Network and are opening a Recovery Café right here in Redding—a welcoming space where healing begins with hope, connection, and community.

Our Café is more than a place—it’s a movement. We’re building a sanctuary for individuals recovering from homelessness, addiction, trauma, and mental health challenges. Through membership-based support, loving accountability, and social entrepreneurship opportunities, we’re helping people rebuild their lives—finding jobs, reconnecting with family, and becoming vital contributors to our community once again.

This is a transformational model, not a drop-in center. Many of our members are experiencing—often for the first time—relationships that believe in their best selves and call them to grow into who they want to be.

Here’s where you come in.

We’ve been offered a $10,000 matching grant—but we need your help to unlock it. Every dollar you give today will be doubled to support the launch of Recovery Café Redding.

Your support will help us:

Create a safe, healing environment for our members

Offer classes, programs, and gatherings in partnership with local nonprofits, churches, and professionals

Launch job-training and social enterprise initiatives

Rebuild hope, one life and one relationship at a time

We invite you to join us—whether by donating, spreading the word, or becoming a community partner. Let’s work together to make Redding a healthier, safer, and more compassionate place for all.

✨ Double your impact. Donate now and help us unlock $10,000 in matching funds.
