Furnishing the Future
Where Hope Becomes Health
For 63 years, ABC Recovery Center has served as the Coachella and Imperial Valleys’ cornerstone for addiction treatment and recovery. As the oldest program of its kind in the region, we have dedicated ourselves to treating the whole person—providing a lifeline for the underserved, the homeless, and families in crisis.
Today, we stand at the threshold of our most significant milestone yet.
The Challenge: The "Final Mile"
Through a transformative $27 million state grant, we are nearing a completion of a massive campus expansion. This project added seven new buildings totaling 44,400 square feet, effectively doubling our capacity to serve those in need.
However, the state funding was designated for construction only. To open these doors and begin saving lives, we must furnish and equip every square inch—from the 60 residential bedrooms and 120 recovery beds to the commercial kitchen, clinical therapy rooms, and wellness center.
"The State Built the Structures; We Make Them Sanctuaries."
Why Furnishings Matter
Recovery begins with dignity. Research shows that safe, comfortable environments significantly improve treatment outcomes. A bed isn’t just furniture—it’s the first night of rest after years of chaos. A dining table isn’t just a place to eat—it’s where community forms and healing conversations happen. Every item in our facility plays a role in someone’s journey from addiction to recovery.
How You Can Help
Campaign Duration: February 1 – December 31, 2026
Year 1 Goal: $500,000
Our Building Hope campaign is designed to be as tangible as the impact it creates. We are raising at least $500,000 this year to transform these empty buildings into healing environments.
We invite you to browse our Giving Catalog (see Auction tab above), where you can see exactly what your contribution funds:
Sponsor a Recovery Bed ($2,500): Provide the foundation for someone’s first night of sobriety.
Furnish a Residential Room ($5,000): Create a dignified, safe space for a resident to rebuild their life.
Equip Clinical & Wellness Spaces: Fund the therapy chairs, dining tables, and fitness equipment that facilitate daily breakthroughs.
By helping us reach this goal, you are helping ABC Recovery Center serve 1,760 additional individuals every year. Your gift ensures that no one in the Coachella or Imperial Valleys has to face the journey of recovery alone.
Join Forces: Create Your Own Fundraising Page
Here’s what makes this campaign truly special: Anyone can create their own personal fundraising page or organize a group page to rally support.
For Individuals: Create your own personalized fundraising page with a custom link to share with your network. Whether you’re honoring a loved one’s recovery journey or simply want to make a difference, you can set your own goal and track your progress on our campaign leaderboard.
For Groups: Friend groups, families, church communities, service clubs, or local businesses can create a team fundraising page together. Pool your resources, compete with other teams, and work toward a shared naming opportunity. This is exactly what Leadership Coachella Valley Class of 2026 is doing—and they’re proving that meaningful impact doesn’t require a single major donor.
Every fundraiser gets:
A personal or team fundraising page with your story
A custom link to share via email, text, or social media
Automatic donation tracking and credit
Recognition on our public campaign leaderboard
A special branded thank you gift from ABC at the successful completion of your goal to show our deep gratitude!
This changes everything about naming opportunities. Traditionally, a $5,000 Recovery Bedroom naming required one generous donor. Now, 10 friends can RAISE $500 each. A church congregation can rally together. A family can honor their loved one’s recovery collectively.
The State built the structures. Together, we make them sanctuaries—one contribution, one community, one team at a time.
