Every day, men (and now women) trapped in addiction, walk through the doors of S2L carrying shame, fear, and the belief that their story is over. At S2L Recovery, they discover something radically different: freedom, brotherhood/sisterhood, and the life‑changing hope of Jesus Christ.

The Freedom Gala: Night of Hope is a celebration of transformed lives and a lifeline for the men and women who have not yet made it here.

On this special night, you will:

Hear from Dominic Done, Executive Director at Slave 2 Nothing, as our keynote speaker sharing a message of hope and redemption
Experience live bidding with Matt Newsom, a nationally known auctioneer, bringing energy and excitement to the room
Participate in an exclusive silent auction featuring curated items and experiences you won't find anywhere else
Enjoy a unique dining experience crafted to celebrate community and connection

"So if the Son sets you free, you are free indeed." — John 8:36

Your attendance and generosity helps provide Christ‑centered residential care, biblical counseling, discipleship, and ongoing support for men and women battling addiction. When you invest in S2L, you are investing in fathers/mothers, sons/daughters, brothers/sisters, and husbands/wives who are stepping into a brand‑new legacy.

Will you join us for a Night of Hope and help more men and women experience true freedom from addiction through the power of Christ?

Every seat filled is a story of freedom waiting to be written.

Note: This is a Black-tie event: Tuxedos or formal dinner suit for men and elegant gowns for women.
