Help us celebrate the Holidays with Sober Social Club!

Sweeten the Season with us by helping create cozy, connection-filled spaces for people in recovery this December.

Your support makes our Gingerbread House Party possible — from the hot cocoa bar to the charcuterie table — and helps us cover our year-end community expenses so we can step into 2026 strong.

December can be a tough month for many in recovery. Your gift helps ensure The Velvet Rabbit continues to be a soft place to land — a place where people can laugh, create, and feel part of a community that truly gets them.

Why Your Support Matters

The Velvet Rabbit is entirely community-funded. That means every cup of cocoa, every game night, every moment of connection, and every safe event is made possible by people who believe in what we’re building.

When you give, you’re not just donating money — you’re making sure someone walking into their first sober event feels welcomed, supported, and seen. You’re helping us keep our events free (or low cost), highlight sober-friendly spaces in Akron, and dream bigger for the future of this community.

How to Give

• One-Time Gifts: Help us cover immediate needs like supplies for events, snacks, and outreach materials.

• Monthly Support: Become part of our “crew” — monthly gifts keep our programs running and help us plan future events with confidence.

• In-Kind Donations: Want to donate snacks, drinks, or event supplies? We love that too.

Every single gift sweetens the season for someone in recovery. We’re grateful for every person who believes in this work — you’re part of every laugh, every friendship, and every new beginning that happens here.

Thank you for being part of The Velvet Rabbit!
