The Door In The Wall, Inc.
"Programs for people with a disability"
All donations to DITW are tax deductible. Your support insures that our programs can continue.
THANK YOU!
Our Mission is to improve the quality of life for people with disabilities and encourage them to take the first step to try new experiences that previously were considered beyond their reach. It is also our goal to educate their able bodied peers to enable them both to live together with new respect and understanding.
President's Promise
The Door In The Wall programs have changed and evolved over the past 26 years but our commitment to you, the person dealing with a disability on a daily basis, has remained the same. We are dedicated to making a positive difference in your life. Please visit our EVENTS page (above) to see our calendar.
We are an AVO (All Volunteer Organization) that relies on community support. We would like to thank the many individuals and private companies, that you will find listed on this website, for their continued support.
Barbara Blair, President
The Door In The Wall is the title of a book written by Marguerite de Angeli in 1947.
Doors and doorways have long been symbolic of hope, opportunity, passage from one state to another, entering into a new life.
Follow your dreams and the universe will open doors for you where there were only walls.

NEXT IS THE ROAD
(THE ONE THAT WASHED OUT EVERY YEAR)
AFTER THE BOBCAT WORK WAS DONE WE CALLED IN THE CEMENT TRUCKS TO POUR CEMENT IN THE FORM CONSTRUCTED BY RALPH KESSLER AND SON JUSTIN. COUSINS DANNY AND JIMMY KESSLER CAME TO HELP RALPH GET THE CEMENT IN THE HOLE. UNCLE NOLAN ALSO CAME TO HELP. I DON'T HAVE TO TELL YOU HOW HOT IT WAS HERE IN JULY. THEY GOT IT DONE JUST IN TIME FOR THE 4TH OF JULY EVENT HERE ON MEDINA LAKE. JULY 9TH WE GOT A FLOODING RAIN BUT NO MORE ERODING AWAY. I'M HAPPY TO REPORT THE CEMENT IS STILL IN PLACE. WE NOW HAVE A BEAUTIFUL ROAD! I JUST HAD TO GET ON MY HANDS AND KNEES TO PLACE A KISS RIGHT ON THE LONG AWAITED ROAD!
