In October 2015, Peggie and Paul Shevlin set up a public charity to assist individuals seeking recovery. With 3 of their 7 children afflicted with addiction - they knew personally addiction's devastating effect on the whole family.
Grateful for their own children's recovery, they felt called to specifically serve needy persons transitioning from treatment to recovery housing. Promoting hope in this particularly vulnerable population was their goal.
Today, over 2000 have been helped by the Shevlin Family Foundation. Hundreds of individuals have become recipients of housing scholarships. Many more have received help with food insecurity, clothing needs, transportation issues, legal advocacy. The Foundation also houses five Delaware County men seeking long term recovery in our home and offices in Chester, PA. They are now part of our extended family!
Like any disease, addiction affects the whole family...but recovery & healing is possible!
After being faced with addiction in their own family, Peggie and Paul Shevlin wanted to make a difference! Knowing firsthand the devastation addiction causes Peggie and Paul decided to pay it forward and help those who cannot help themselves YET! Stepping in TO BE FAMILY for those struggling is our mission! Providing practical help for those just being discharged from treatment has become our main priority- especially for Delaware County residents.
