“Our mother was always thinking of other people. My sisters and I have countless stories of how she made a meal, spent time talking, or opened her home to others in need. She left a legacy of love and family. It is my hope that her life’s philosophy, the Open Hearts Philosophy, will become a movement through the Foundation’s work and legacy. I invite you to open your heart and join us. Everyone is welcome,” Jane Seymour, Founder, Board member, artist and award-winning actress.

Family Volunteer Day
On Family Volunteer Day, Open Hearts Foundation Founder Jane Seymour, Board Treasurer Mark Ebling, and Executive Director Trena Pitchford joined 20 passionate volunteers at Manna Conejo Valley Food Pantry in the Conejo Valley, united by a shared purpose: to serve their community with open hearts and helping hands. Together, they unloaded and sorted thousands of pounds of food to ensure that families in need receive nourishment, hope, and support.

testimonials
“With the support of incredible foundations like Open Hearts, in 2024, the Volunteer Center was able to deliver 4,044 literacy bags filled with books, STEM Kits, crayons, math tools, a toothbrush, a teddy bear, and other critical education tools - reaching over 50 schools and 146 classrooms in five school districts. Thank you, Open Hearts, for your partnership and for helping us spread empathy and kindness in the South Bay community one classroom at a time.”
Dr. Josh Gezahegn President/CEO at The Volunteer Center of South Bay, Harbor, and Long Beach
“We are so grateful to the Open Hearts Foundation for their VERY generous $25,000 matching funds that will support our nutritional, fresh produce selections for our struggling work force population. With this funding we will be able to provide 10-15 fresh produce selections to our 750+ weekly shoppers and their families for several months. With the increasing cost of food, we continue to see new families who need a hand up every week. Open Hearts help came at a great time as the community needs continue to grow. Thank you for your heart for helping neighbors.”
Jennifer Barnes Co-Founder at Solidarity Sandy Springs
“On behalf of all of us at Chinle Planting Hope, thank you, Open Hearts Foundation, for the $7,000 grant supporting our R.E.A.D. in Beauty Bookmobile and literacy program. Thanks to your generosity, we have been able to purchase much needed program supplies and equipment - including tablets, STEM toys and activities, science kits, and supplies for science experiments - all of which promote literacy and increase interest in STEM-related learning pathways and careers early in the lives of underrepresented children.”
