Your Miles for Milestone Challenge presented by Pine State Elevator

This September we, the Milestone Staff, are supporting people struggling with homelessness and substance use disorders by participating in the Your Miles for Milestone Challenge to benefit Milestone Recovery.

Since 1967, Milestone has been supporting some of most vulnerable friends and neighbors by providing substance use treatment, shelter, and outreach services based in Portland and Old Orchard Beach, Maine.

Every year Milestone:

• Records 17,000 outreach contacts with people in Portland experiencing homelessness
• Provides 13,000 bed-nights of emergency shelter to people who would otherwise sleep on the streets
• Treats over 600 people at the only non-profit opioid and alcohol withdrawal program in Southern Maine that serves uninsured and underinsured people at no charge
• Places at least 15 people in permanent housing from chronic homelessness (3+ years)
• Provides long-term treatment with an average stay of 103 days; most other providers offer a maximum of 28 days.

Every day Milestone changes lives. Please help us be part of that change by joining our fundraising team or donating today.
