For Immediate Release
Greensboro, NC – Fellowship Hall, a private nonprofit treatment center dedicated to helping people who suffer from alcohol or drug addiction has received a $10,000 contribution from Central Carolina Bank (CCB) in support of its capital campaign. The purpose of the campaign is to raise funds for renovation and new construction that would add 12 new beds to Hall’s existing 48 beds, thereby increasing its overall capacity by 25%.

The gift by CCB is the second payment of a 3-year pledge for $30,000. Rodney Battles, President of Fellowship Hall, said, “We have received a great deal of support from the corporate community of the Triad, and we are gratified in particular by the generosity of Central Carolina Bank.”

The Hall’s Board Chair, Richard Miller, added, “The Hall’s successful treatment program enables employees to return to full productivity and helps eliminate health care costs and the costs associated with absenteeism that results from addiction. So, contributions, like that of CCB, are an investment in the economic well being of our community. More importantly, the Hall helps restore mothers and fathers to their families, and helps bring husbands and wives together again. You cannot put a price on that accomplishment.”

Fellowship Hall’s capital campaign has received over $550,000 toward its overall goal. Construction and renovation efforts will begin in the near future.

Fellowship Hall is a private nonprofit facility with a 100-acre campus located at Hicone Road and Highway 29 North in Greensboro.
