How would including donations to our
Foundation in your estate plans help in the fight against
addiction?
The Brighton National Addiction Foundation seeks your donations
and philanthropic support its fight against all forms of substance
abuse. Dedicated to the mission of Brighton Hospital, one of
America’s oldest and most experienced alcohol and drug treatment centers
and the first to be licensed in Michigan, the Foundation offers ways for
individuals, corporations and grant makers to invest in our national
leadership as they plan their estate. With your donations, you allow
our drug and alcohol treatment center to continue to be a leading source
of hope through prevention, patient care, aftercare, education and
research. By including donations to the Brighton National Addiction
Foundation as you plan your estate, you can play a pivotal role in the
fight against chemical dependency. There are many opportunities
available for you to be part of the solution.
It is with great pleasure that Brighton Hospital
welcomes the philanthropic leadership of the Brighton National Addiction
Foundation.

"Brighton Hospital has had strong relationships with
families throughout the United States and Canada for many years", comments
Richard Kramer, President of the Brighton National Addiction
Foundation. "These relationships, built on the importance of
effective 12 step recovery programs and innovative treatments of these
chronic diseases, are vital to the continual success of the hospital."
Your donations will help us:
- Build and expand our alcohol and drug treatment center. Our
campus exceeds 90 acres including Lake Serenity, wooded areas, and
historic structures. All of our rehab clinic facilities need
updating and restoration to keep pace with hospital innovations and
expansion.
- Help patients who need added days of rehabilitation. In the
world of alcohol and substance abuse, detoxification, and recovery,
research has shown a clear correlation between the length of stay in a
rehab clinic and the long-term success of the patient’s recovery.
Insurance carriers, however, do not reimburse behavioral health and
rehabilitation from substance abuse as generously as they cover a
patient’s medical and surgical needs. The Hospital Patient
Extended Care fund provides for this gap.
- Grant continuing education opportunities for our drug and alcohol
treatment staff. Inaugurated in 2006, the Brighton Hospital
Addiction Fellowship is America’s first clinically based addiction
fellowship program. It increases the quality and quantity of
medical staff and supports the vision of the hospital as a national
center of excellence and an innovator in alcohol and drug treatment and
education.
- Help collaborative research programs with leading medical and
nursing schools. Funds are needed to sponsor research programs
while they develop the resources needed to apply for extramural grants
from government agencies and foundations.
- Supply scholarships for our youth drug and alcohol services.
Through regional partnership, the Teen Drug Rehab Clinic enables more
teens, ages 13-17, and their families to get the help they desperately
need. Scholarships provide assessment, intensive outpatient
treatment for three months and aftercare.
- Fund and continue a variety of other programs, such as our clergy
recovery series, our 30-day residential treatment series, our halfway
house expansions, the restoration of our 1939 chapel, and the relocation
and expansion of the gift shop and bookstore, all which keep our
hospital a leader in drug and alcohol treatment, and the rehab clinic of
choice over other highly regarded chemical dependency hospitals.
Our Philanthropic partners are people like you who have
enriched their own lives while supporting the needs of others through
donations from their estate plans. There are a variety of ways that
you can plan for your own financial security and still offer our hospital
valuable support. In addition, the emotional rewards, which can only
be described by those who have felt them, make supporting us a
life-changing experience.
Thank you so much for your interest in the Brighton
National Addiction Foundation and considering donations in support of our
philanthropic mission. For more information on factors to consider
as you plan your estate or to learn more on how to donate through wills
and bequests, real estate, retirement assets, charitable lead trusts,
appreciated stock, and charitable remainder trusts, contact foundation@brightonhospital.org.
With your gifts, donations and support, we will build upon this lead for
the sake of all who look to us for caring, compassion and clinical
excellence in the face of addiction, a life-threatening, chronic
disease.
