RAP Sponsorship and Partnership Programs

We all know someone facing addiction

Addiction and recovery affect every household and workplace in our region. People in recovery — and the people in their lives —are the sons, daughters, mothers, fathers, customers and employees of our sponsors.  When you support the Recovery Association Project, you or your company will be showcased at our annual event as supporting the recovery of individuals and the recovery of our communities.

Recovery saves the community money

RAP is offering you the unique opportunity to support programs which give back to the community. Dollar for dollar, RAP saves the community money by sharing effective strategies that assist people to remain alcohol and drug free – keeping our neighborhoods safer, our workplaces running, our families healthier, and costing less in tax dollars. People in recovery become better employees, consumers, and pay taxes.

Demonstrate your support all year long

Add your voice and financial support for recovery and be showcased at our 5th annual event - consistently covered by all major NW television networks and newspapers. Over 1,500 people and companies support RAP at Hands Across the Bridge including families, public officials, health care providers, employers, faith communities, and Native American drummers from Washington and Oregon.     

Donate to RAP today and be highlighted on Labor Day. Donations are tax-deductible and accepted all year long.

HANDS ACROSS THE BRIDGE and RECOVERY ROCKS!

At our 4th annual event in 2005, nearly 1,500 people felt the power of  Hands Across the Bridge, and over 1,000 celebrated the Recovery Association Project’s success at Recovery Rocks! In 2004, over 1400 people recovering from alcohol and other drug addictions, their families, friends, and others supporting freedom from addiction, gathered on both sides of the Columbia River to join hands across the Interstate 5 bridge.  Both Washington and Oregon united making a powerful statement that Recovery is possible and to kick-off September as National Recovery Month.
