Get Involved
Support recovery. Strengthen community.
The White House Alano Club exists because of the people who care about keeping a safe, sober place available in Des Moines. There are many ways to get involved, whether you want to volunteer your time, support the club financially, or simply help us stay welcoming and active for everyone who walks through our doors.
Support a safe, sober space for recovery.
The White House Alano Club is maintained through the voluntary efforts and contributions of members and supporters. Every act of service helps keep this clubhouse open, active, and available for those seeking recovery, support, and connection in the community.
Whether you choose to volunteer, donate, attend events, or help spread the word, your involvement matters. This club continues because people show up for one another, and every contribution helps us continue that mission.
We believe recovery grows stronger in community. By getting involved, you help preserve a welcoming place where people can meet, heal, and support each other one day at a time.
