THAT’S board of directors. It took only WHAT THE DOOR HELPS ACCOMPLISH. a few minutes of conversation for them to realize the power that The Door holds in creating opportunities for young people.

Then they saw and heard from our young people themselves, and that’s when their passion for The Door really kicked in. While attending one of our events, they witnessed Door members dance their hearts out on stage and heard our young people share stories of finding a career path — and a future. It put a spotlight on something that both Kathleen and Michael connected to. “There are so many brilliant, talented young people out there whose abilities haven’t been tapped into yet. They just need the opportunity to make a difference, and it can be difficult for them to take those steps alone. The Door becomes a stepping stone for something bigger and better,” Michael says. Kathleen has seen this effect firsthand while volunteering with our culinary and nutrition program — her own area of professional expertise. She’s also connected a young man she mentors to our programs with the belief that here, he can find a path to success. “It’s just a warm, caring place for everyone to find their way.” Their commitment to making sure young people have that opportunity is stronger than ever. “With everything going on right now, what The Door does is more important than ever. We want to support those who need us with pride, passion, and gusto — just as this organization does.” KATHLEEN & MICHAEL SCHOEN SUPPORTERS AGES 10,000 TEENAGERS AND YOUNG ADULTS ( 12-24 ) ADVANCE THEIR GOALS
