The Story
Hi, I'm Amanda and Revive Financing became a spark of an idea two years ago shortly after my fiance and I moved in together. When it became apparent that my fiance was one of the 1 in 12 Americans that suffered from a substance use disorder.
After searching for options on how to best help him I discovered that the only real option was the county funded program. Neither of us, or his family had the available funds to pay the required on average cost of $3000 per month which needed to be paid up front for a privately funded spot. Leaving him with no choice but to go on the 6 month waiting list. When he finally got a spot he lost it because he couldn't leave for a 90 day program in two days. Putting him once again back on the waiting list for another 6 months. After doing some research I discovered that his story is not the exception to the rule, but in fact a very common story.
This project started as a way to give others like my fiance the finical support they need to get the help they deserve. People that have a substance abuse problem should be given the opportunity to receive quality treatment in a timely manner, just like what would happen with any other medical issue.
