We have numerous events throughout the year, designed to engage the collective Open School family and also raise money at the same time. Friends of the Open School is responsible for organizing the fundraising efforts at the Open School.
We hope you will participate in all of our events as a volunteer, organizer or attendee and we look forward to your support and enthusiasm.
