QUILT THE PANHANDLE
THE FIGHT AGAINST THE OPIOID EPIDEMIC
Grace and Mercy Community Outreach (GMCO) is joining the fight against the Opioid Epidemic. GMCO offers Sober Living Housing and Substance Abuse Recovery to addicts. The ministry has witness the lost of several individuals to the accidental overdose of Opioids. Recently GMCO partnered with several local ministries who are ready to fight against this evil epidemic. Taking back their community and saving their loved ones is the goal.
About the Cause
The “QUILT THE PANHANDLE” fundraiser is similar to the Aids Quilt launched years ago. GMCO goal is to create a quilt that reaches from Pensacola, Florida to Tallahassee, Florida (200 miles) thereby to help the community understand the devastating impact of the Opioid Epidemic and to spread awareness. It also allows family members an opportunity to memorialize their loved ones lost to the horrible epidemic. The proceeds collected from the fundraiser will support additional housing, counseling and many more resources for recovering addicts in transition.
