The Open Door empowers immigrants to reach their full God-given potential to successfully integrate, participate and contribute to the well being of our society.

Make a difference in the lives of adult immigrants by teaching in-person ESL classes weekly on the Upper Wide Side. Volunteers choose to serve once a week, either on Monday or Tuesday evenings from 7 to 8:15 pm.

Volunteers must be 18 and over and complete an application form, interview, and training. As a faith-based organization, The Open Door NJNY looks for individuals whose values are aligned with our mission to share God's love with the immigrant community.

Volunteers must be fully vaccinated to participate in this in-person teaching opportunity. This is a great opportunity to serve together with a friend or two!
