Support Our Mission

Donations Are Tax-Deductible

Your generous contributions are vital to our mission. We are a registered 501(c)(3) organization, which means that your donations are tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law. 

Receipt for Tax Purposes

All donors will receive a receipt via email that can be used for tax purposes. This receipt will detail your donation amount and confirm that no goods or services were provided in exchange for your contribution. Please keep this receipt for your records.

Thank you for your support!

What’s next for Fitness In Recovery?

Over the next 6-12 months, we will be relaunching our Community Division with the goal of offering 3 workouts a week.
