*Member Grant Review Committee

"I have experienced first hand, the healing power of family and the importance of a family's presence when an ailing child has to endure the unimaginable challenges of hospitalizations, curative treatments, and surgeries. My older brother was born with a congenital heart defect that required extensive hospital stays and countless surgeries for the duration of his life. My family was fortunate enough to have the financial means to always be present and provide my brother with love and support. Open Doors Foundation has recognized the importance of family and was created to provide assistance to families in need of financial assistance so they too can be with their loved ones in times of need."
"At 3:14 in the morning, carrying your 7 month old son around the corner for the 17th time of the children's ward at the hospital that is trying to keep you son alive, the only sliver of stable ground you cling to is knowing you house payment is not on the list of the 928 other things that you are worrying about. Only Opens Doors Foundation will give you that kind of hope. ODF - Thinking with our Heart."
"Giving back to the families and communities in which MBA members live and work is not only the right thing to do - it is the best thing we can do as an industry. It is an amazing feeling to know that every dollar we raise goes directly to help families in need."
