Funds raised will be deployed to deliver a message of hope and provide services to those facing addiction. Annual Holiday Giving Program: Meals and gifts for residents in recovery centers in the local community as a message of hope and caring. 1751 Outreach Community Program: Since 2019, using low-threshold care methods, a true understanding of the lifestyles in active use, and a personal approach, Project White Butterfly has worked to connect people who use drugs, and community members, to services and resources. We meet people exactly where they are, both geographically and mentally, on the streets of the community to introduce resources for healthier choices they can make in their lives and their community. We provide tangible resources and education, share information for services they can utilize, and create an environment where they feel safe to share their unique story. We aim to serve all persons who struggle with substance use disorder from all races and ethnicities, various socioeconomic classes, and sexual orientation backgrounds. We serve people who do not feel comfortable with reaching out to large organizations and government entities.Impact Since March 2021, through Preventative Community Outreach, we have connected over 700 individuals with substance use disorder to treatment, services, and resources for harm reduction and recovery. In addition to people with SUD, we have interacted with over 5,500 additional individuals to provide education about the toxicity of drugs in our community, signs of overdose and how to administer Naloxone, services available to individuals with SUD, and support for others who have been affected by the opioid epidemic. April 2021 April 2024 we brought resources and assisted in connecting people to services through over 500 preventative community engagement events throughout Cuyahoga County, targeting areas with high overdose rates and known drug activity Distributed 6,300 naloxone kits We have received 63 reported overdose reversals using naloxone distributed by Project White Butterfly As of April 2024, over 80,000 Project White Butterfly cards have been distributed in Cuyahoga County and more than 20,000 outside the county: to 29 states and as far as London, England, and The Netherlands. We have created a walk-through gallery called "Dispelling Stigma" that presents statistics, science, and real-life stories of people with SUD, to be displayed at libraries, the Cuyahoga County Justice Center, high schools, and John Carroll University. Community Safe Space Meeting was created in January 2022. Project White Butterfly understands that substance use not only affects the person who is using, it ripples into the lives of the people around them, thus, we created this meeting so those in the ripple of someones substance use can find strength and comfort in knowing they are not alone on their journey of loving, and wanting to help, people who use drugs. In December 2023, work began to create The Recovery Collective - a recovery community organization under Project White Butterfly who's mission is to create a judgement-free and supportive community that fosters diversity, personal growth, and a sense of belonging on a person's unique path to holistic and sustained recovery. The Recovery Collective by Project White Butterfly will help bridge the gap between existing professional treatment services and sustained long-term recovery for people by enhancing peer-focused community engagement and support. 1751 Sara Szelagowski President 40.00 2000 Gary Szelagowski Chairman 1.00 0 Gina Dalessandro Director 1.00 0 Steve Harris Director 1.00 0 Geri Weis Treasurer 1.00 0 Amy Kuntz Secretary 1.00 0 Jasmine Kocheiser Board Member 1.00 0 Antoinette Whitticar Director 1.00 0 Steve Harris Treasurer 0 0 X false true false false false false false 0 0 0 false 0 0 false OH Sara Szelagowski 8607 Ridge Road 202 North Royalton OH 44133 2164109850 false false false false false false false false false false false NONE NONE true X 690 2336 8262 51260 57890 120438 0 0 690 2336 8262 51260 57890 120438 0 120438 0 0 999 700 476 40646 42821 163259 0.73770 X Butterfly Bash 40646 40646 525 1880 2607 40646 40646 525 1880 2607 5012 35634 Other Expenses.1001 Advertising and Promotion $1693 Other Expenses.1002 Office Expenses $1653 Other Expenses.1003 Information Technology $2395 Other Expenses.1005 Travel $5376 Other Expenses.1012 Insurance $1101 Other Expenses.1 Community Outreach $11501 Other Expenses.2 Holiday Giving Program $1751 Other Expenses.4 Training and Development $1295 Other Expenses.5 Processing Fees $491 Other Assets.1005 Accounts Receivable - Beginning $0 Accounts Receivable - Ending $3761 Total Liabilities.1001 Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses - Beginning $1329 Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses - Ending $3559 Changes to Organizing or Governing Documents Amendment to organization documents to make the President (Executive Director) an ex-officio member of the Board of Directors.
