A root cause — of both the justice impact and our growing houseless population — is addiction. For the longest time, Sioux Falls had no grassroots, peer-led recovery community to meet that need.

That changed when Vanessa and Corey — both having walked through addiction themselves — signed a lease without a long-term plan and simply opened their doors. The three pillars for climbing out of the justice system are housing, employment and community. They’re building the community piece — the one that makes everything else possible.

We cover our costs. Everything above that goes to the cause.

No one is asked to trust a percentage. Event revenue first covers venue and operating costs, and every dollar above that goes directly to The Grateful Homie Project. That’s the whole arrangement — and it’s why we kept sponsorship to a single tier with no overhead to feed.
