Transforming Lives

More than 1 million people in the United States have died from drug overdoses since 1999, with opioids involved in the majority of these deaths. The crisis has evolved in three distinct waves. The first began in the 1990s with increased prescribing of opioid pain relievers. The second wave emerged around 2010, marked by rising heroin-related deaths. The third wave, which continues today, began in 2013 and is driven by synthetic opioids—particularly illicitly manufactured fentanyl.

In 2023 alone, more than 105,000 people died from drug overdoses, with nearly 80,000 involving opioids. While recent data suggests a decline in overdose deaths, opioids—especially fentanyl—remain the leading cause of overdose fatalities and continue to impact families and communities across the country.

"Frankie's VOICE" is a non-profit organization in remembrance of Frankie D. Raffa Jr.  Organized in 2017, our mission  is to aid young people that suffer with substance abuse. The Frankie's Voice organization runs a yearly auction and tournament event and since inception has raised and distributed over $250,000 to local organizations dedicated to helping your people recover from their addiction.
