Opening Doors has been selected as the official nonprofit partner, receiving one dollar from every Dine Downtown meal sold. Opening Doors empowers more than 4,500 immigrants, refugees and trafficking survivors each year across Sacramento by providing workforce development, entrepreneurship training, financial empowerment, immigration legal services and social-support programs that foster stability, self-sufficiency and belonging.
