Dear Friends of Crossroads,

As the holiday season begins, we are reminded that recovery is not a journey taken alone. It is a path made possible through kindness, compassion, and community support. This month, we wish to express our deepest gratitude to the many individuals and organizations that stand beside Crossroads and the women we serve.

Gratitude for the Pioneers MC – USA

This incredible group of sober men continues to show up for Crossroads whenever we call. Whether preparing and serving food at our Day at the Bay event or helping in countless other ways, the Pioneers MC embody the spirit of fellowship that strengthens our recovery community. We invite you to join us in supporting their mission on Sunday, November 16, as they continue to make a positive difference in San Diego. Dedicated men doing good—it does not get any better than that!

Supporting Our Recovery Partners

At Crossroads, we believe healing grows when we lift one another up. We are proud to stand alongside many exceptional partners in the recovery community, including Turning Point, Stepping Stone of San Diego, The Way Back, Pathfinders, Freedom Ranch, South Bay Pioneers, Street of Dreams, and McAlister Institute. Together, we are building bridges of hope — one home, one person, and one recovery journey at a time.

A Note for the Season

The holidays can be a joyful time, but they can also be difficult for many. For those in recovery or struggling with mental health challenges, this season may bring feelings of loneliness or stress. If you or someone you know needs help, please reach out to a local recovery home or mental health provider. No one should face the holidays alone.

With Gratitude

This Thanksgiving, we are thankful for you — our donors, partners, alumni, and friends — for making it possible for women to find healing, hope, and a new beginning at Crossroads. Since 1957, your compassion has kept our doors open and our mission alive.

From all of us at The Crossroads Foundation, we wish you a peaceful and healthy Thanksgiving.

Help Us Keep Hope Alive

As the year ends, please consider a tax-deductible donation to support women rebuilding their lives through recovery. Together, we can continue to change lives—one woman at a time.

With gratitude,
Lindsey Purdie
Executive Director
The Crossroads Foundation
