Nonprofit of the Week for May 16, 2023

About the Nonprofit:

The Emily Evans Concert for Hope was established by the Evans family in 2021 as a heartfelt tribute to their beloved daughter, Emily. Tragically, Emily lost her life to an accidental overdose in May 2016, a consequence of being denied treatment due to a lapse in medical coverage.

Driven by their devastating loss, the Emily Evans Foundation fights tirelessly against the harrowing opiate epidemic, striving to spare other families from enduring the same heartbreaking tragedy. Through their concerted efforts, they have organized two impactful events, raising over $65,000 in donations to support individuals grappling with addiction and mental health issues.

Despite their achievements, the Emily Evans Foundation understands that the battle is far from over. With an unwavering commitment to the cause, they plan to collaborate with other venues and event producers in the community, expanding their reach and providing ongoing support to those in need.

With sorrow weighing heavily on their hearts, the Emily Evans Foundation remains steadfast in their mission, determined to transform their pain into hope. Their dedication serves as a beacon of light for those affected by addiction and mental health challenges, offering solace and the promise of a better future.

About our Features of the Week:

One of our goals is to help raise awareness for several different causes, diseases, and more. Each week we feature a Non-Profit of the Week for you, so please visit these organizations and share their information. Your organization may be the Harford County Living Non-Profit of the Week in the future.

Organizations love free advertising, and this is one way to get it. We have over 32,000 Social Media Followers and millions of hits to our website, so why not take advantage and reach them. Several of them also come on the podcast to talk about their charity, and why wouldn’t they? It’s free to come on and has over 500,000 downloads and is listed in the Top Podcasts for Arts, Health, and Business on Goodpods, and is also one of the top 10% most popular shows out of 3,000,000+ podcasts globally, ranked by Listen Score (the estimated popularity score).

If you would like to be featured or nominate an organization as the Nonprofit of the Week, please email rbennett@harfordcountyliving.com and a questionnaire will be sent to you.
