did you know that you can purchase tiles in memory of a loved one who passed away or in honor of a significant person in your life? The tiles installed at Open Arms become part of a lasting legacy. Replica tiles are also available as a keepsake for you.

Commit to a lasting legacy: Purchase a tile

Purchase a tile and help us cover our walls with the names of people whose generosity, compassion, dedication, loss, gratitude and love, have made Open Arms the very special place that it is. Your contribution will ensure that no one who is living with a chronic and progressive disease in this community will have to go hungry.

These tiles will be installed in our new building and will be seen by thousands of donors, volunteers and clients each year - for decades to come. Tiles are available at $5,000, $2,500, $1,000 and $500, and may be paid in full, or through pledge payments for up to three years. Pledged over three years, a $500 tile costs less than .50 cents a day. A $5,000 tile comes to approximately $4.50 a day – the equivalent of two meals for our clients.
