TRUSSVILLE — The Trussville Rotary Daybreak Club donated $1,000 to a foundation that helps victims of addiction move on in their recovery process.
Rotary Daybreak donated the funds to the Will Bright Foundation, whose mission statement is “Breaking the barrier to recovery from addiction by bridging the gap between the bubble of recovery and taking that next step, through awareness, education and the provision of transitional living.”
Lisa and Bill Bright started the Foundation in memory of their son, Will.
“Will was kind, caring, a friend to all and a drug addict,” the Brights state on the foundation’s website. “He tried so hard to overcome his addiction but when he left rehab he had nowhere to go to get a fresh start. He went back to drugs and died of a heroin overdose at age 25.”
