Where Are Donations Applied?

Where Are Donations Applied?

"Every OA group ought to be fully self-supporting, declining outside contributions."  


Since 2020, the number of Two-Hour OAHOW Meetings listed on this site has grown from nine weekly meetings 22, with more in development. 


Currently, there are over 5000 visitors to our website on a monthly basis.  And the numbers are growing as we expand to other countries.


  The challenges of working OA HOW recovery in a virtual world are unique. While most of our meetings are virtual only with no physical location, there are expenses to maintain and grow our fellowship.


Therefore, we continue to need your financial support, and donations are now fully tax deductible. 


Please give what you can, when you can.

A life of sane and happy usefulness is what we are promised....
