Opening Doors Plan

Every day, someone in Ontario needs our support. Whether they’re newly injured and meeting with our Peer Support team for the first time while in hospital, or contacting our Resource Information Coordinator who responded to over 1,200 calls last year, looking for answers to questions about wheelchair accessibility, local services, travel and more.

By joining our Opening Doors Plan as a monthly donor, your support will have a positive and lasting impact on people living with a spinal cord injury or other physical disability.

The Opening Doors Plan - It’s easy, convenient, flexible and rewarding. Whether you prefer to use your credit card (online) or automatic withdrawals from your bank account (through our office), you can increase, decrease or stop your donations at any time. You will receive a single, consolidated tax receipt for your monthly donations each year in January. You will receive regular updates and information on us throughout the year, including mention in and a copy of our annual report.
