What they do
THE PURPOSE of THE CORPORATION is to CREATE and DELIVER PROGRAMS THAT PROVIDE CHARITABLE ASSISTANCE to FAMILIES WITH CRITICALLY ILL or INJURED CHILDREN for THE PURPOSE of AIDING IN THE SECURITY of THEIR HOMES.IN JANUARY 2025, THE OPENS DOORS FOUNDATION CREATED A SPECIAL PROGRAM CALLED THE DISASTER RELIEF PROGRAM, WHICH WAS DESIGNED to ASSIST FAMILIES IMPACTED BY THE WILDFIRES IN SO CALIFORNIA. THE PROGRAM HAS THE SAME MISSION and SIMILAR CRITERIA for ELIGIBILITY BUT WAS LIMITED to FAMILIES WITH A CHILD IN TREATMENT AT LA CHILDRENS HOSPITAL. THE DISASTER RELIEF PROGRAM is NOW OPEN to ALL OPENS DOORS HOSPITAL PARTNERS and WILL CONTINUE to BE AVAILABLE UNTIL THE PROGRAM HAS EXPENDED THE FUNDS AVAILABLE or UNTIL THE PROGRAM RECEIVES ADDITIONAL FUNDING.
Are they doing good?
The public paperwork has several good signs. Now check whether the charity can show who it helped.
Here is the honest answer: A tax form shows money and paperwork. It cannot prove that people, animals, or the community were truly helped.

Money made simple
Ask these three easy questions
- Who did you help? Ask for a recent story or report that shows real results.
- What will my money do? Ask exactly what your gift will pay for.
- Is this really the charity? Give only through its official website or confirmed phone number.
Pay context: The highest compensation shown in this filing is $245,112 for ROBERT BROEKSMIT (ODF DIRECTOR, MBA PRESIDENT). Compare pay with organizations of similar size and complexity.
Bottom line: Good paperwork is a good sign—not proof. The best answer comes when the charity can show what it changed, who it helped, and what your gift will do. YouCanGiveBack does not endorse or grade organizations.
