Today, on Black Balloon Day, we remember and celebrate the lives of all of those we have lost to an overdose.

Overdose is the leading cause of accidental death in The United States. Americans are more likely to die from an overdose than a car accident.

We are thinking of all the families and friends who lost their loved ones, not just today, but every day.

🏌️Looking to support a great cause and get your golf on?

⛳️ Join us at The Cordella Foundation Annual Golf Outing May 21st at The Golf Club of Dublin.

The Cordella Foundation board members Alyx Gold and Mary Jane Sanese spent the morning with Franklin County Coroner, Dr. Nathaniel Overmire. Thank you to Dr. Overmire for the tour of your facility and for sitting down and having a productive conversation about how to help best support families in Franklin County who have lost loved ones to Substance Use Disorder and/or overdose.

We thank Dr. Overmire for his care and concern for the people of Franklin County, which is absolutely apparent through his work and involvement throughout the community.

Fentanyl overdose is the leading cause of death for Americans ages 18-45. Last year, Ohio had the 7th highest overdose rate in the country. The best way to help people is to continue to talk about it, to end the stigma and then work together to find solutions to help. We appreciate Dr. Overmire and the staff at the Coroner's Office and their willingness to help.

We are excited to announce the speaker for our Inaugural Light Out of Darkness Dinner, Cheryl Lacksonen.

Cheryl lost her son, Christopher, in 2014 to the disease of addiction. She is the host of a podcast, Where'd They Go?, that discusses coping with grief after losing a child. She is also a steadfast advocate for legislation pushing for harsher punishments for dealers involving overdose deaths.

We hope you can join us to hear Cheryl's inspiring story February 9th at The Makoy Center. All funds The Cordella Foundation raises are used to support families who have lost their loved ones to addiction. For more information visit www.thecordellafoundation.org or email [email protected]
