Family Outreach 

Family Nights

Getting the entire family involved is crucial to helping students and families make lasting healthy changes.

Professionally prepared meals - Our resident chef prepares delicious, attractive, nutritious meals for our families several times a year free of charge.

Parents learn new recipes and observe a short cooking demonstration.  The chef also visits our Cultural Arts program periodically to give students an opportunity to taste and prepare healthy snacks. 

Guest Speakers - Every family night features a health presenter and activity following the meal.  Some have included Karate instruction, treatment of seasonal allergies, CPR, and reading food labels for health.

Panera Bread

Two Doors receives day end bread and baked goods once a week from Panera Bread as part of their national Operation Dough-nation program. Baked goods are distributed to neighborhood families.

Holiday Giving

Employees of area corporations contribute groceries, clothing and toys each year at Thanksgiving and Christmas for distribution to program families who are especially in need.

Family Shopping

Students in the After School Program have an opportunity to earn "Two Doors Bucks" that can be redeemed to make purchases of gifts for siblings and parents during the holidays. Two Doors accepts donations from the community of new items that can be distributed in this program.
