| Alano Club Facts: What is an Alano Club? Alano clubs are not for profit corporations dedicated to help the recovering alcoholic. They usually have meeting rooms, some kind of food service, recreational activities, libraries, and resources for the alcoholic to help with their recovery. Some Alano clubs may have a small store to purchase recovery literature and other items sought out by those in 12 step programs. The recovering alcoholic will find a safe place to be with others in recovery when not in meetings. Often there are resources for finding jobs, housing or just a few new friends. Alano clubs have lounges to watch T.V., read, play a game, use computers, make a few phone calls or meet with people to assist with their transportation needs. How does an Alano Club work? Alano clubs exist through membership dues, rental of meeting room(s), community grants and fund raising activities. An active membership requires membership in Alcoholics Anonymous or a direct relation to a member of Alcoholic Anonymous. There’re usually are no paid employees although some clubs do hire a paid manager. As a not for profit corporation, Alano clubs may accept donations from other businesses or individuals. Alano clubs are not affiliated with Alcoholics Anonymous but do adhere to the AA 12 steps. Alano clubs often will rent meeting room(s) to AA and other 12-step programs and will carry literature and information for them. This makes Alano clubs a great community resource to help all those in need. Meeting room(s) are available for seminars to those working in the recovery field and for public educational and outreach meetings. How can you help? If you are a member of Alcoholics Anonymous please join. Dues are usually very reasonable. If you have a few years in sobriety, remember what it was like when you first started to try and stay sober. The newcomers and those with but a little time really need your help, you may not need this resource but your neighbors do. If you are a community business person or leader, please donate annually. Alano clubs also often need furniture, TV’s, books, games, office supplies and even vehicles or other items they may sell. Alano clubs are non-profit and therefore your donation is tax deductible. |
