Emily's Hope is a legacy charity in the name of a prolific painter whose life was cut short. We are raising awareness of the overdose epidemic, stopping the stigma of addiction, and helping to offset the cost of treatment. With your help, we can offer hope and recovery to more people struggling with addiction. Our K-12 Emily's Hope Prevention Curriculum is teaching children the impact of substances on their brains and how to make healthy choices. 

How Emily’s Hope Started:
Emily's family was devastated that they couldn't get her help in time. In the face of her grief, Angela Kennecke vowed that she would do anything she could, in Emily’s name, to prevent other families from going through an overdose loss. A new treatment center was being built in their community. Angela inquired about starting a fund to help offset the cost of treatment for substance use disorder. After the fund was established, Angela went public with Emily’s story, and Emily’s Hope was born. People throughout the country have rallied behind our mission and have been essential to its growth. A tribute to Emily and her art is now a reminder for everyone who enters the Avera Addiction Care Center that Emily lives on through the efforts of Emily’s Hope.
