Georgia's Friends

💫Celebrating 10-Years of Serving Our Mission!

Last night was nothing short of incredible. ✨

Our hearts are so full as we reflect on a beautiful evening surrounded by a community that truly showed up — with love, curiosity, compassion, and support for recovery.

From the powerful stories shared, to the meaningful conversations, to the art, the film, and every moment in between… it was a reminder of why this work matters so deeply.

To our sponsors, donors, volunteers, board and committee members, staff, and community partners — thank you for making this night possible. Your belief in our mission creates real impact.

Thank you, Adriana Marchione and The Paramount Theater of Charlottesville for being such great partners in this event and bringing these visions to life! 😊

And to the women of Georgia’s Friends — our residents and graduates — your courage, strength, and willingness to share your journeys are what make this community so powerful. You are the heart of everything we do.

We are endlessly grateful. 🩵

Charlottesville, thank you for standing with us.

✨ If last night moved you, we invite you to carry it forward — share the story of recovery and the mission of Georgia’s Friends with someone who may not know about us yet. Start a conversation, extend an invitation, and help us continue this momentum.

Together, we can reach more women, build more community, and remind others that recovery is possible.

A little behind the scenes! The Walk A Mile Event Committee came together last Thursday morning to prepare for our walk on Friday. The barn at Portaferry farm is stunning 🍂🍁

Our annual Walk A Mile In Their Shoes event raises awareness and vital funds that ensure women continue to have a safe and supportive place with recovery support services right here in our community. Each donation helps women rebuild their lives with dignity and hope.

On the eve of our 5th Annual Walk A Mile event, we want to thank our Meadow Sponsors. Your commitment provides welcome baskets with linens, towels, toiletries, and groceries for 10 new residents! 💐
