The Ellen 23 Foundation

The Ellen 23 Foundation We have created this foundation in memory of our 23 year old daughter Ellen who was tragically taken by a drug overdose. We hope to help save others.

Mission Statement – Ellen 23 The Ellen 23 Foundation was started to honor the life, heart and soul of Ellen Petty. Through sports, education, counseling and researching it is our goal to save one life at a time from this massive epidemic of alcohol and drug addiction. With our generous contributions, we will support larger programs to help in the advocacy fight to bring awareness of the epidemic t

o local, city and national officials. Our slogan “HELP ME, HELP YOU” we hope will reach at least one person who will say, I need help! Each year we will do one large fund raiser combining music and golf to raise money for our cause and throughout the year we will seek funding to help people and families struggling because of this epidemic. Thank you so much for caring, sharing and helping us to save a life.

While watching CBS This Morning I
learned that Fentanyl (which took Ellen’s life) coming over the border through Mexico has increased over 800% this year. They said that with the influx and ease of immigrants crossing the border that the border patrol can’t keep up and it gives the Cartel more and more opportunity to get this death pill across. One teaspoon of pure fentanyl is enough to kill 3000 people according to this report. I don’t care what your political views are or how you feel about immigrants but in my opinion we are losing this battle. Please please please help us figure out how we can continue to help people get into recovery before it’s too late!

Due to the statement issued by the CDC today pertaining to events with more than 50 people for the next 8 weeks, we feel it’s our obligation to postpone our “Jamming For Awareness” event previously scheduled for April 30th. We will work with our celebrity musicians and The Tipsy B***o Saloon & Cantina to get a new date lined up ASAP!
