EVENTS
Celebrating 50 Years of Inclusion, Play, and Community
Teacher Bonus Fund
As we head into the season of giving, we want to celebrate the heart of Open Door: our loving teachers. Every day, they pour their energy, passion, and love into nurturing your children, fostering curiosity, inclusion, and joy in every classroom moment.
Help us make this holiday season merry & bright for our teachers by contributing to our Teacher Bonus Fund. No matter the size, each donation will have a meaningful impact on our teachers. Every cent raised through December 5th will do directly into a bonus on their last paycheck before winter break.
You can even send your teacher a note of appreciation with your gift! Let’s show our teachers just how much we value their dedication and hard work.
Play it Forward 2025
You’re Invited to Join the Fun!
As we honor 50 years of Open Door magic, we’re inviting our whole village, past, present, and future, to come together again for an unforgettable evening under the stars.
Join us for city views, shared memories, and a whole lot of love as we look toward the future together.
