DIRECTORS' NOTE

Daily routines interrupted. Life milestones cancelled. Adjusting to working from home, or worse, not being able to work or go to school at all. These are the crises we have all faced as the pandemic continues. All these awful circumstances have come together to impact the addiction crisis in America by isolating those who are in most need of care.

We see this crisis unfolding in our community every day. A quick scan through GoUpstate mugshots, the obituaries or a simple stroll through our downtown puts this tragedy at our feet every day. Families are torn apart; dreams are shattered, and children are left without a parent. We are simply left feeling powerless to this epidemic.

At GoForth Recovery we are blessed to witness the triumph and restoration of lives through our residents’ commitment to our program - Recovery, Responsibility and Community. We watch these men go from a hopeless and helpless state to a life filled with hope and joy. Our graduates have reunited with their families and children, obtained well-paying employment with benefits, pursued higher education, gotten married and moved into their own homes. Our greatest joy comes from seeing the men in our program reconnect with their children. Being a father again provides them with a sense of purpose and fuels their dedication to long-term recovery. All this is possible through God’s grace and the generous donations from people like you.

We humbly ask you to make a donation to assist us in helping these men recover.

  • Buy Dinner for the House: $50
  • Keep Us Warm - Winter Work Clothes: $100
  • Provide Resident Basic Necessities: $250
  • Sponsor a Resident: $500

You can make a tax-deductible donation securely online at goforthrecovery.com or send a check made out to GoForth Recovery and mail to PO Box 6560 Spartanburg, SC 29304.

Thank you for your kindness and consideration. You can truly help make a difference!

ABOUT SPARTANBURG COMMUNITY DENTAL

Our Mission

"To provide effective and affordable oral health care to underserved and uninsured individuals in Spartanburg County, SC"

Established in July 2020, Spartanburg Community Dental Center (SCDC) is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit community dental clinic whose primary reach is to those in underserved communities that do not have the economic means and insurance to access affordable oral health care. Partnered with Spartanburg Medical Center's Advanced Education in General Dentistry Program, Spartanburg Community Dental Center can educate residents and provide direct care to vulnerable populations.  SCDC does not participate in any insurance programs, however, fees are structured on a reduced fee scale in order to enable treatment for most anyone in need.  Dental services include extractions, dentures, implants, crowns and bridgework, root canals and other dental procedures. The clinic is particularly interested in serving those striving to be free from addiction, abuse and homelessness.

"We are proud to be a community partner of GoForth Recovery!

GRADUATE SPOTLIGHT

JEREMY URBAN
"In July 2020, I was confined in the Spartanburg County Detention Center and reached a point in my life where I was sick and tired of the chaos I had created over the past 25 years. I prayed that God would help me find somewhere to help me establish a life and become the man He intended me to be. Brian and Nick met with me in jail and thankfully accepted me. They saw me as someone that they were willing to pour their love into. I entered GoForth with only the clothes on my back, with no job or money and committed to doing whatever it took and was suggested in their program. 

I successfully completed the program, extended as a resident and during my one-year stay at GoForth and through the grace of God that my marriage was restored, family and relationships repaired, a successful business Integrity Concrete was launched and most importantly sobriety. I have a stronger relationship with Jesus Christ than ever before. GoForth believed in me when no one else would. They saved my life! I'm forever grateful and will always be a part of the Goforth Recovery program."
