On June 2, 2016, Thresholds, a nonprofit organization that provides recovery services for persons with mental illness, held their annual gala in downtown Chicago. This year’s event, titled Celebrations of Home, focused on raising funds for thousands of individuals that Thresholds assists in finding and maintaining housing.
Urban Balance was pleased to donate funds to provide basic home essentials – contributing to the organization’s goal of providing safe and stable living environments for individuals in communities across Illinois.
We were blown away by keynote speaker Sharon D. Wise, M.H.S, a mother of two who shared her story of overcoming addiction and homelessness with the help and support of Thresholds. Today, she is 27 years sober and a national speaker.
Thresholds is a truly amazing organization, and we are proud to be part of their efforts to help thousands of adult and youth in need of healthcare, housing, and hope.
