Connor’s Heart is a New Mexico based nonprofit dedicated to helping people all over the country and world recover from fentanyl and opiate addiction and to save lives through the sharing of vital lifesaving information, treatment, and testing kits.

The organization was founded by Lisa and Lance Keltner.

Lisa works in the addiction recovery industry and Lance has enjoyed a 40-year career in the music industry.

The two lost Lisa’s son, Connor, to fentanyl poisoning in July of 2022. They have decided to dedicate their lives by using their skill sets and connectivity to raise awareness by producing musical events all around the country. Those events will raise capital that will be used to sponsor treatment for individuals who are addicted to fentanyl, who need and want help as they are reintegrating into society, and to also pay for Narcan and testing kits.

The live music proceeds will be used to help people in the area where the shows are produced. Our hope is that these events will raise awareness, and raise funds to help community members in need begin recovery and live a successful life.

We are partnering with the NM Reentry Center for this event and want to share the important work they are doing:

'Redirecting the Hustle' signifies our dedication to reshaping the narrative surrounding reentry and tackling recidivism. We advocate for comprehensive support which begins before release, fostering community connections, and prioritizing personal resilience in sustainability and establishment.

As a peer-ran and operated initiative, we recognize that empowering ourselves entails empowering each other, paving the way for a brighter and more meaningful future.
