Who We Are
The Metro-West Alano Club is a not for profit corporation registerd in Michigan
and operating in the Detroit Area. We are a 501(c)(3) corporation legally recognized
by the Internal Revenue Service and operated by a board of directors for the benefit
of it's membership. Officers are elected for a term by the membership which is overseen
by an election commitee made up of members. Membership is open to the public.
Purpose
The Metro-West Alano Club was formed October 29, 2008 by a group of like-minded
alcoholics desiring a club in the Redford/Livonia area where they could gather and
have fellowship and fun together, and where they could promote the message of recovery
to all who seek it. The Club is not endorsed nor opposed by Alcoholics Anonymous;
however sharing the message of AA and the AA way of life is one of our primary goals.
We have successfully negotiated a two year lease agreement with Redford Union School
District.

Mission
The Metro-West Alano Club is a self-supporting social club for alcoholics and those
who support them. The Club exists to provide its members with an alcohol and drug-free
environment promoting social interaction, fellowship, and education.
"We have been dealing with alcohol in its worst aspect. But we aren't a glum
lot. If newcomers could see no joy or fun in our existence, they wouldn't want it.
We absolutely insist on enjoying life."
AA Big Book, Chapter 9
