Making a cash donation to "Metropolitan Cathedral of Saint John the Theologian" is a great way to support our fundraising effort. We greatly appreciate any donation you are able to make.

Grounded in our beliefs which emphasize the dignity of all human life, we have established the Opioid and Drug Addiction Crisis Fund (“The Fund.”) The Fund is designed to assist those with a demonstrated need for counseling or financial support due to opioid and drug addiction.

Our current support group meets monthly offering emotional support, education, and supplemental services. “The Fund” is designed to expand and continue this support which is provided confidentially and on a non-denominational basis.

Those in need of assistance are referred to us through religious leaders, local social services, schools, friends, neighbors or relatives. The Social Services committee of our Philoptochos Society, a philanthropic organization, vets each case on a strictly confidential basis to validate the need and to refer the matter for appropriate action.

Helping someone who suffers from opioid and drug addiction requires enormous support. There are government agencies, social services, insurance programs, and other organizations that are set up to lead in this effort but unfortunately, those funds and services are not always sufficient.

Through our already established support group, “The Fund” will be used to supplement those services not only financially but also to expand awareness via outreach, education, and guidance to those in crisis.

By working together as a Northern New Jersey community and as compassionate and generous people, we can improve the quality of life for individuals and families afflicted by this disease.

We come to you, humbly, to ask for your help. The need for opioid and drug addiction awareness and support is here and is very real.

As we celebrate our Cathedral’s 50th Anniversary, let’s devote ourselves to this worthy cause and, as a community, continue to build for our future.
