Let's Get Real, Inc. is a 501(c)3 non profit Recovery Community Organization. We connect people who seek treatment and support them in their journey to recovery. In addition to receiving grants from the MHARS Board of Lorain County, we rely on the generosity of our donors. Please consider making a donation today and all donations are tax-deductible.
Please consider Let's Get Real, Inc. as the charitable organization when suggesting where donations can be made by the family of a loved one who has passed on. All suggested donations made "In Memory Of" to honor a loved one will go towards the
"Jason Dunbrook Memorial Fund". This special fund was created to help offset associated costs to help anyone who contacts our office for services. Since moving to our Lorain location in August of 2018, we experienced a significant increase in the amount of clients that we served. Our goal is to turn no one away.

Remember when we said we had a BIG ANNOUNCEMENT? Let's Get Real, Inc. has a new building in Lorain which will help us to expand our services to the recovery community and their family members. Our organization was offered the opportunity to acquire the former Dombrowski-Riddle Funeral Home building (which was donated) at a time where we have experienced tremendous growth since Let's Get Real's inception by Director Kim Eberle.
This new location will allow us to expand services to our clients and their families. We are still planning on keeping our second location in Vermilion because we do serve clients in both Lorain and Erie Counties. Because all of this happened in a short amount of time, our organization is at a CRITICAL transition to generate funding quickly for some unforeseen operational expenses until we can apply for grants.
There is going to be a huge fundraiser on July 14th that the VermilionLionsClub & German's Villa is hosting for Let's Get Real. Tickets are still available and if you are unable to attend, you can make a donation directly to our website (or simply click the donate button below). We would like to thank everyone for their continued support during this transition and look forward to serving the immediate needs of our clients.

Ongoing Projects

Consider donating some Gift Cards!!!
One thing that could help our agency year round are donations of gas cards and $10 fast food gift cards. This generous type of donation can help us when our Recovery Coaches help with clients getting them to and from treatment when we transport them. Please feel free to either mail them or drop them off at our office. THANK YOU!!! |
Donate Clothing & Toiletries
Unfortunately when some of our clients walk into our office, they have lost everything or have very little or no personal items like clothing. We help them by taking one more obstacle out of the way to give them some dignity giving a fresh start with their recovery journey. We are accepting toiletries, gently used Mens and Womens clothing, shoes, jackets, coats. We will also accept NEW socks and underwear for men and women along with NEW personal care items: shampoo, conditioner, bar soap, body wash, toothbrush, toothpaste, hair brushes, combs, deodorant, various types of feminine hygiene products. |
