About The Open Doors

At The Open Doors, we are dedicated to supporting youth, individuals, and families facing difficult circumstances by providing programs and services that promote safety, connection, and stability. Every day, we see the realities of housing insecurity, poverty, and social isolation — and we strive to create spaces where people can find hope, belonging, and support.

Participating in the Coldest Night of the Year (CNOY) is deeply meaningful to us because it reflects the very heart of our mission. This national event raises awareness and vital funds for organizations like ours that walk alongside community members who may be struggling to meet their basic needs.


For us, CNOY is more than a fundraiser. It’s a reminder of the resilience within our community and the power of compassion. By walking, we’re standing in solidarity with those who experience the cold, uncertainty, and hardship that so many face every day. Together, we can bring warmth, dignity, and hope to our neighbors.
