ATHLETIC COMMUNITY

Athletic Scholarships and Community for People in Recovery

Building healthy alternatives to alcohol and drugs is key to the success of people in recovery.  Unfortunately, many healthy alternatives—like cycling, running or other sports—can be cost prohibitive to people newly sober.  That is why Broom Wagon provides ATHLETIC SCHOLARSHIPS to individuals that are dedicated to strengthening their sobriety through physical fitness. 

Broom Wagon’s Athletic Scholarships vary in size and type—ranging from race registration fees, to running shoes, to cycling equipment, and more.    

Broom Wagon is also an ATHLETIC COMMUNITY for people abstaining from alcohol and mind-altering substances.  Broom Wagon holds events and trips that are inclusive and safe places to build both sober community and an active, healthy lifestyle centered around a love of exercise and an appreciation for life on life’s terms. 

Broom Wagon is a 501c3 nonprofit corporation.  Donations to Broom Wagon are tax deductible.  If you would like to help fund a sober athlete’s scholarship, attend an event, or volunteer let us know!
