Open Arms 101 for the last 3 years have always been there for my mom- helping her in any way they could from storage clean out to helping her find furniture for her apartment and paying for it!!! They young man named Rev. Patton is a Godsend, when he says open arms 101 staff and its clients are family believe me He stand on his words!!!! I love this Organization❤️
When I say God knows who to put in your path!!! Hm… I met the CEO of this Organization just by way of conversation not knowing who he was and what he do. I tell you that Rev. Oliver Patton is heaven sent- he assisted me with some groceries that he paid from out of his pockets and a care package from the organization and more assistance by His program assistant Ms. Stone. I truly thank God for Open Arms 10. They may be small but my God the work that they do really speaks Loud!!!!

She really has a way with people just the biggest heart!!! This Organization goes beyond what is asked for and provides more!!!! I see why it’s, “called Open Arms 101”
This Organization helped me with Clothes and some food donations!!! Very loving staff and volunteers!!

Great Organization!!!! Helped my Mother out with care package and a little food and The Director always found time to sit and have a conversation with her.
Great Organization with big hearts!! I am a recipient of the care packages and the resources this organization has!! I’m truly grateful to be apart of the #advancefolk @ Open Arms 101 family!!
Oliver Patton is my dad, and he informed me of open arms101 years ago with a plan on helping our elderly community members who doesn’t have a lot of mobile access to places and things. Seeing the smiles on people faces when they receive a donation from charitable people is why I try to speak of the work OpenArms101 does every chance
I can not say enough about this Organization!!! I truly thank God for Open Arms 101. Great staff, Great attitudes and a Loving Heart!!!!

I just Love this Organization Open Arms 101. I am a client of Open Arms 101 and I just love the entire staff because of the Love that they share to all its clients no matter what color they are….. This Organization helped me find housing when I was living in an Hotel!!!!
I came across this organization by way of the Calumet township senior center. This Organization had care packages for the elderly and they also provided some counseling/ conversation to us Advancefolk as they say!! Open Arms 101 is an most needed organization in todays times for us seniors who just need a little help! Open Arms 101 staff and volunteers have a great attitude toward the community it serves and a heart of Gold to be able to cater to us Seniors in need!!

Open Arms 101 is an God sent organization that was able to assist my 90 year old Father and 92 year old sister with care packages and assistance with cleaning out the clutter in their apartments for inspection. The young people that works with Open Arms 101 had the greatest attitudes when it came to help the elderly or the Advancefolk as Open Arms 101!!!! I thank God for Ipen Arms 101!!!!!
Open Arms 101 is an Organization with a big heart and a lot of compassion for serving the elderly (#Advancefolk). I am a veteran on a fixed income and open Arms 101 stepped in an provided me with a care package to help me out. This organization has a lot of Young people working from within with great attitudes and compassion for the Advancefolk!! I Love Open Arms 101!!!!!!!
What Open Arms 101 is doing for our community is beyond commendable! Friendly faces with big hearts! They have been so generous to donate gift bags to our senior community and they were a hit!
Open Arms 101..... what can I say???? My mother who is 92 years old needed assistance and she contacted United Way who gave her the information to Open Arms 101 and I can tell you that this Organization went above and beyond to make sure my mother had all that she needed and more!!!!! The love and compassion Open Arms 101 showed toward my mother lets me know that God has a plan in the future for Open Arms 101 as they continue to bless the Seniors.
I just Love Open Arms 101!!!! this organization really shows the Love of God when it comes to dealing with the Advancefolk as they call them. The entire staff has a great big heart to serve the seniors and anyone who is in need. I am glad to be a proud volunteer behind the scenes and would recommend Open Arms 101 to All.
I LOVE volunteering for this organization! They are such a blessing to the seniors who are living hand-to-mouth and in poverty! You should see how their faces light up when they get a care package!
Open Arms 101 has shown nothing love to the community as far as helping seniors and those in need with their daily functions.
I am a recipient of one of the care packages that this organization distributes and the contents in the care package helped me tremendously because what was in the care package were the things that I could not afford at that time due to me having to buy medication. The young lady that assisted me was very nice and kind and very knowledgeable about helping me find other resources to assist with lowering the price of my medication. I truly thank God for Open Arms 101. They provided a service for me and the best part is they came to me.
Open Arms 101 is a God-sent organization. I have witnessed Open Arms 101 firsthand by blessing Mother a year ago with a Christmas Bag full of Gifts and a hand-knitted shawl. The young lady that presented her with the bag showed so much love for my mother by taking time to show her everything that the bag contained and spent some time with her by talking to her it just warmed my heart.
I have seen this organization at work servicing the seniors/advanced folk by providing for them with love. This organization does not only just give out care packages they also educate them with literature on how to stay healthy at an old age.
Open Arms 101 is an great organization when my father could not get to some of his Doctors appointments the CEO of the company personally came and took my father to his appointment and waited to return him back safely home. I Love This Organization.
Open Arms 101 is one of the amazing Nonprofit because I have saw the hard work and dedication behind the walls of this Nonprofit. Open Arms 101 consistently provides in the community in given out needed care packages, food, and health information. I honestly recommend people who needs help to contact Open Arms 101 because they do the work that is needed in our communities.
I never cease to be amazed at the energy staff and volunteers show in their community service; providing care packages for seniors; PPE for the community; hosting community resource fairs and expungement events for the formerly incarcerated. We need more organizations like this, and Open Arms 101 is the perfect program model.
Open Arms 101 is a caring comprehensive agency which attempts to provide help and comfort wherever needed in the senior community. I have known Open Arms 101 to get involved with transportation issues, senior apartment cleaning, reaching outside of their agencies to assist Seniors with furniture and clothing. Open Arms 101 provides gift bags to Seniors containing personal products that otherwise might be unaffordable. Open Arms is an agency that glories in caring and sharing when it comes to the Seniors.
