In 2019, Phoenix Multisport, Inc. (dba "The Phoenix") began expanding our capacity, through additions in technology and staff, to increase our ability to serve one million people with free recovery support in the next five years. Additionally, we continued to grow programs and attendance in our brick-and-mortar locations in California, Colorado, Massachusetts, Idaho, and Billings, MT. We also expanded our brick-and-mortar operations by integrating the programs and operations of Root to Rise, in Belmar, NJ and built a new facility in Wichita, KS. Further, the Phoenix expanded volunteer led programming sites across the nation and was operating in 46 cities at the end of 2019. The Phoenix's sober active community reached 11,530 new individuals in 2019. (Continued on Sch. O) Peer recovery support programs offered by The Phoenix help people stay engaged in the recovery process and reduce the likelihood of relapse among those with substance use disorders. Colorado update: Volunteer-led locations brought Phoenix programs to new communities in Fort Collins and Steamboat. Brand awareness and individual donations increased with the launch of peer-to-peer fundraising events such as a springtime Ragnar race in Aspen and an August fitness competition in Colorado Springs. Programs like mindfulness and art classes were added to the calendar in Denver, so that low-barrier events are always available at Phoenix. California update: Free community programs continue to grow as well as partnerships with treatment centers and other community organizations, serving over 800 individuals in 2019. Phoenix Orange County hosted their 3rd annual Phoenix Unbroken fitness competition-fundraiser with a record turnout of athletes from local gyms, and won first-time grant awards from 3 local foundations.Massachusetts update: In 2019 The Phoenix served over 2,000 individuals throughout Massachusetts. This was largely a result of partnerships with other impactful organizations throughout the state including the Middlesex County Sheriff's Office, The Gavin Foundation, Federal Probation Reentry Services, the Rose Kennedy Greenway and several recovery resources and treatment centers. The Phoenix also formed a partnership with The Boston Red Sox, which allowed us to highlight our programs on a larger scale, helping to reduce the stigma around substance use and recovery. This partnership celebrated some of our team members on the field and our Founder threw the first pitch.Additionally, The Phoenix shifted away from our Per Ignem membership-based strategy. This shift allowed The Phoenix to put all time and talent towards expanding our reach throughout Massachusetts and building our base of volunteers, this included launching programs in Bourne, MA.Boise update: The Phoenix in Boise served close to 600 members and built collaborative relationships with many Idaho organizations like IDOC, The VA, and VCORP.
