Eric’s Safe Haven Foundation was created in loving memory of Eric Webber—an incredible son, friend, and musician who believed in leaving the world better than he found it. After losing Eric in 2024, we made a promise: his kindness, his passion for music, and his heart for helping others would not be forgotten. Instead, they would become a movement.

We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in Dayton, Ohio, dedicated to fostering hope, raising awareness, and building a supportive, healing-centered community for anyone affected by addiction, grief, mental health struggles, codependency, abuse, or personal pain.

Through the power of live music, personal stories, family-friendly activities, and real healing resources, we are creating events, festivals, and outreach that bring people together—offering connection where there was isolation, and purpose where there was pain.

The Safe Haven Music Festival—is scheduled for September 2026, around what would have been Eric’s 40th birthday. We are planning for the event to be a one-night or two-night overnight camping experience within 2 hours of the Dayton, Ohio area, depending on the support we are able to secure.

Our vision includes **a long line of resource tents—as many as we can fit—**offering real help, education, and support from trusted organizations and caring professionals. We’re working with therapists, universities, churches, and fellow nonprofits to fill that line with connection and compassion. Our mission is to reach anyone who walks through the gates, even if they didn’t realize they needed help until they found the right moment, the right message, or the right tent.

This festival will not just be about the music—it will be a healing space that we are hoping to include:

• Narcan training & education

• Mental health and suicide prevention resources

• Support for recovery, sobriety, and sober living

• Help for domestic violence, abuse, codependency, and relationship trauma

• Grief support for families, children, and caregivers

• Christian encouragement and church collaboration

• Strong community testimonials and access to counseling

• Roped-off desensitizing areas set apart from the stage and crowd—one specifically for guests with children and one for guests without—giving people space to step away if they become overstimulated

We are taking child and family safety extremely seriously. In addition to these designated decompression areas, we’re looking into color-coded bracelets for children and other intentional safety systems. We want families to not only feel welcome—but to feel truly safe, supported, and thought of at every step.
