Dear Friend(s):

We asked and you delivered! We asked you to give BIG for The Open Shelter & those we serve during The BIG Give….and YOU DID! Nearly $20,000 was raised during The BIG Give thanks to YOUR support and the bonus pool provided by The Columbus Foundation & it’s partners.
We and those we serve are overwhelmed and grateful for your generosity during these trying times. Because of this support, we are able to continue our mission of “Staying Behind With Those Left Behind”. Because of your support, we are able to stay OPEN. Because of your support, we are able to continue providing crucial needs and services for the most vulnerable in our community — homeless and marginally housed men, women and children. Since 1983, The Open Shelter has been there because of your support. We are truly a grassroots agency….everything we do for those we serve is because of your support. Thank you for making that possible.
