Kick It For Recovery is an annual event organized to bring awareness to addiction support and the fentanyl crisis and to raise funds to provide financial assistance to support individuals seeking addiction recovery.  

This event is dedicated to honoring the life of Mike Reitzell. Mike passed away in 2021 due to an accidental overdose. During Mike’s journey with addiction, he expressed a desire to find a way to support others who may be struggling to afford treatment. Mike believed in the benefits of addiction recovery and treatment, and he always hoped that more could be done to uplift those most in need. In memory of Mike’s athletic spirit, and his ultimate wish to help others, the Kick It for Recovery fundraising campaign was formed. 

Proceeds from this event as well as any donations to this HOPE Fund will benefit ARCHway Institute and Learn to Live Recovery. Specifically these funds will be used for individuals who need financial support to get into a treatment or recovery program. Half of the proceeds will be utilized for individuals at Learn to Live Recovery in Hermann, Missouri while the other half will be utilized for individuals in various other regional programs as determined by ARCHway Institute.
