Our Mission
Our mission is to provide scholarships that cover the financial gap of detox, giving people the chance to take that critical first step. Each applicant is carefully screened for both financial need and genuine readiness. We intentionally look for commitment and honesty, while avoiding those who show manipulation or lack of seriousness. Recipients are expected to contribute what they can, ensuring investment and accountability in their own recovery journey.
The barrier most people hit
Admission often requires up-front patient responsibility—a deductible, co-pay, or deposit. That shortfall can be as low as $200 and still stop someone who’s ready for help.
What New Wings does (and doesn’t) do
We bridge the verified up-front gap — the part a person cannot cover after contributing what they can.
We move quickly so admission can happen now, not “later.”
We don’t replace insurance or fund entire programs — we fill the shortfall that makes detox possible.
We don’t pay individuals directly — all support goes straight to providers.
We don’t cover personal expenses such as travel or incidentals.
Stewardship & accountability
We expect client contribution whenever feasible. We verify costs with licensed providers, watch for readiness and commitment, and keep funds focused on people who are truly stepping into care.
Who we help
Adults in Northern Utah (and statewide as funds allow) who are under-insured or uninsured and facing an immediate financial barrier to admission.
How we started
New Wings was founded by the team behind White Dove Detox after seeing too many people ready for help turned away because of a deductible or co-pay due at admission. We created a direct, transparent way for the community to step in and help bridge that gap.
How it works
We partner with licensed detox providers to verify need, confirm readiness for care, and pay the verified up-front amount directly to the facility—never the client. Every dollar goes toward clearing the barrier that keeps someone from starting treatment.
Why it matters
Detox is a medical necessity, not a luxury. By funding the first step, we give people the chance to begin again with safety, dignity, and hope.
Our promise
We move quickly, act transparently, and keep donor funds focused where they belong—helping real people take their first step toward recovery. 🕊️
