Year-End Giving
As we approach the end of another eventful year, it’s that time when the spirit of giving takes center stage. We are excited to announce our year-end giving, Gratitude Tuesday campaign, a day dedicated to expressing thanks and making a difference in the lives of those we serve.
Why is YPR choosing to celebrate Gratitude Tuesday in place of Giving Tuesday? Great question! This year, we’re celebrating the season of giving by focusing on the incredible power of gratitude. It’s not just about what you can give but the profound impact gratitude can have in our lives.
We encourage everyone to spread the word about our Gratitude Tuesday campaign. Every donation, no matter the size, contributes to our mission and brings us closer to achieving our goal of $10,000. Even better, all gifts up to $10,000 that are received between Gratitude Tuesday and New Year’s Eve will be matched dollar per dollar, doubling the impact of your gift!
Share our mission with friends, family, and through your social networks and sign up to be a fundraiser It’s easy! Let’s work together to make this year’s Gratitude Tuesday an exceptional success.

Hi friends,
My name is Brian Nuckols, and I’m the National Program Director of Young People in Recovery.
I hope you’re getting whatever you need today! Thanks for spending some time in our team portal. I am thrilled to write you as we approach the final month of 2023.
When reflecting on how to write this message, my mind kept flashing to meaning and purpose. At Young People in Recovery, we believe that finding meaning and purpose is a pivotal step in the journey of recovery. It’s not just about moving away from past habits but moving towards a future filled with hope, connection, and personal fulfillment.
Recently, we received some heartwarming feedback from one of our pro-social events, a sober pro-social dance event, that perfectly encapsulates the spirit of our community:
“Hi Brian! Wanted to share some feedback about the dance. I was able to connect with other young adults in a space where I felt really physically comfortable because everyone is comfortable with people doing yoga/dance and being in their bodies. I feel more secure in my sobriety and released from any pressure because of the substance-free zone.”
This message is a powerful reminder of why we do what we do. Creating a safe, substance-free environment where everyone can freely express themselves and find joy in human connection is at the heart of our mission. It’s about building a community where you can find support, understanding, and shared experiences.
As you reflect on your goals for the week, remember how awesome you are! You are creating spaces that allow people the opportunity to experience healing and social connection. We are all about a recovery movement committed to helping others. Thanks for playing a role in this!
We need you.
Sending my love!
Brian
