Our charity Open Support celebrates 30 years of compassion in action You are here:HomeNewsroomNews Thirty years ago, our charity Open Support was established with a bold mission: go where no else goes, be with those too often overlooked, reach out to the margins - wherever there are unmet needs. Since then, its commitment to this mission has not wavered. Over three decades, the Open Support team has been caring for the vulnerable in our community, by taking away some of their worries, by lending a listening ear, by offering human connection - by being there for them, without judgement. The tremendous help of its supporters has been at the core of its actions of compassion.
