We could have not developed Open Sky without core funding from the United Way, and their Community Fund. If you have the opportunity to make United Way charitable donations in your workplace, please do! It has made the difference for us, as well as for many other important community organizations.
Thanks to the Federal Government’s Homelessness Partnering Strategy in 2014, Open Sky was able to renovate our historic building to include a large teaching kitchen, program room and accessible washroom. Thank you!
The New Brunswick Department of Social Development, and its professional Social Workers, have demonstrated commitment to funding several Open Sky participants’ programs. The Department of Post-Secondary Education and Training is a partner with Open Sky’s BYOB – Be Your Own Boss – Employment Development program.
Thanks for ongoing support from this dedicated group of citizens, raising funds for so many good initiatives, including Open Sky!
We are grateful to the Sackville Foodland 50/50 that contributes funding to support our food-related programming at Open Sky. Thank you, friends!
