$5,000 Goal

Opening Doors is a nonprofit organization who help women and children who are experiencing homelessness. We provide goal setting and life skills training that enable them to achieve their full potential. We offer a hand up in the world, not a handout.

Since 2000, Opening Doors has served 4,700 women and children through a continuum of services. Teresa Shelter offers emergency and extended stay programs. Maria House offers transitional housing for up to two years. Francis Apartments offers an opportunity for income-based affordable housing with support services; a combination that has proven to be effective at ending the cycle of homelessness.

Opening Doors offers much more than a place to sleep. We provide the opportunity for women to claim their own power and become self-sufficient.

Testimonials

The Maria House gave me the courage I so desperately needed to start over, and the support to maintain my sobriety. - Maria House Resident

Opening Doors always believed in me even when I didn't believe in myself. They encouraged my art and listened to what I wanted for my life. It is time to let our light shine!
- Francis Apartment Resident

With the help of both the Teresa Shelter and Maria House I know I can do anything if I just stay positive and put my mind to it. With you having "Open Doors" there is hope for everyone who enters the programs. - Resident
