RecoveryRockFest 2016
Donation protected
Hi Folks!
Welcome to the 2016 RecoveryRockFest, nonprofit fundraising page. www.recoveryrockfest.com
Real life stories AND real hope! View video to get a glimpse of tragic to recovery.
Click here to see the Port City Daily fundraiser write up for RRF.
It is known that 1 in 7 people from ages 12 and older will have an issue with addiction and is estimated that 40 million+ people are affected as a whole, with Wilmington, NC being the highest ranked city for opiate abuse in the country. Families, friendships, relationships are torn apart as a result of addiction. Many may feel it's a choice for those afflicted with addiction, but more and more people are finally realizing tht is it a disease, it's genetic, and it's fatal. Many die, some are fortunate.
Our mission and primary purpose.
Recovery Rock Fest is focused on bringing awareness into the roots of our community to inspire and encourage recovery from addiction through the gift of music, and by also offering a resource/information table at the event where people who may be looking for help, can pick up that information.
How RRF is funded.
RRF relies on donations, volunteers, and sponsored items needed for the event such as: performance stages, audio equipment and backline for the main stage, PA system for the singer/songwriter stage, food, tents, permits, tables and chairs, t-shirts and wristbands, banners, flyers, venue, event insurance, parking attendants (if needed), security (if needed), and other ancillary items needed.
RRF wishes to provide the following:
- Provide a substance free concert/fest event bringing the community together in helping to build awareness of recovery from addiction
- Inspire those whom might want recovery and/or have been thinking about recovery
- Provide an information booth for recovery resources
- Provide an event model for future clean and sober events throughout the USA
This is personal.
Hi, my name is Nyla Cione, executive director of Recovery Rock Fest Corporation, nonprofit and thank you for visiting the RRF fundraising page!
There is a reason why is this so personal for me.
Addiction/alcoholism has also affected myself and my family. I personally have been in long term recovery for just over 24 years. It is important to me to give back to my recovery community in any way that I can.
I along with other volunteers, have the privildege of helping to produce this special event in bringing the community together, uniting friends, families, supporting those who have been affected by addiction, and helping to provide a footprint of recovery in our community.
Please join us for the 2016 RecoveryRockFest
In love and service,
