Sponsorship Opportunities
We have outgrown our current space and are in need of 4,000—6,000 square feet within a school or church building. Additionally, over the years this building will allow us to offer a place where individuals teach, mentor, have fun, and encourage each other by connecting five generations under one programmatic umbrella.
When we receive our building, several organizations and businesses have committed to provide free meals for our summer program, free labor (if renovations are required), college partnerships, and pro bono legal services. To sustain ourselves we plan to rent our spaces to the community, operate a café, and charge a small fee for our planned activities, i.e., movie night, plays, musicals, etc. Over the years OPI has received an abundance of catering and office equipment to jumpstart our business.
