Dinner for Hope

Annual Dinner for Hope Fundraising Event

Dinner for Hope is the signature annual fundraising event hosted by Steps to Recovery Homes, created to inspire hope, raise critical funds, and bring awareness to the ongoing addiction crisis affecting individuals and families across our community. This uplifting evening blends purpose with celebration, featuring a delicious meal, live entertainment, inspiring stories of recovery, raffles, auctions, and community connection.

Each year, this event brings together business leaders, local supporters, service providers, and families who are passionate about making a difference in the lives of those battling substance use disorders. Proceeds from Dinner for Hope directly support the programs and services that empower our clients to find long-term recovery, stability, and purpose.

Why Dinner for Hope Matters

Addiction is not an isolated issue—it impacts our workforce, schools, neighborhoods, and families. Despite the growing need for treatment and support, only a small percentage of people with substance use disorders are able to access the care they need. Financial hardship is one of the biggest barriers. At Steps to Recovery Homes, we help fill this gap. Many of our clients arrive with no money and no family support. Our mission is to meet them where they are—offering a structured, supportive, and affordable program designed to promote lasting recovery and rebuild lives from the ground up. Dinner for Hope is a vital part of how we make this mission possible each year.
