Recovery Kidz
Sober.Coffee is joined by Alexis and Linda in the coffee shop to talk about Recovery Kidz, an organization providing gifts for kids that have parents residing in recovery centers over the holiday season. Alexis and Linda are great examples of serving others. Glenn often says “serving others is a superpower”. His challenge? Try it out. Donate.
In her second year of recovery, Alexis had 4 kids. She was blessed with lots of family that really helped out, and in 2013 received a lot of holiday gifts her kids would not use. They decided to give the extra gifts to a men’s treatment center so the men could give the gifts to their kids. But five gifts didn’t go very far, and Alexis found herself reaching out to others to do more - and filled an entire wish list for the treatment center! That’s how RecoveryKidz was born.
Recovery Kidz partners with other organizations like The Sanctuary, recovery for mothers with a newborn baby, to fulfill wish lists for kids that have parents residing in recovery centers during the holiday season.
Want to help Recovery Kidz?
- You can donate money and RecoveryKidz will purchase gifts for kids.
- Go to RecoveryKids.com and click on Amazon Wishlist, then buy the gift from Amazon. The gift goes to RecoveryKidz to be sent to the child.
