You are invited to join in our mission inspired by the Open Hearts Philosophy.
“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, Co-Founder, Board member, artist and award-winning actress.

VOLUNTEERISM PROGRAM
Every generation can volunteer, do something to help others, and find their unique purpose. Since 2017, together, we have been able to inspire and engage volunteers across the world in the Open Hearts Movement.
80 volunteers helped plant seeds, native grasses, and trees at Paramount Ranch in December 2021 and in July 2022, 50 volunteers joined us to complete the park’s goal of planting 50,000 native grasses and trees. We will return in 2022 and 2023 to help again in this two year project.
Become a part of the Open Hearts Movement and Volunteer! We recently launched our Volunteer Blog and invite you to explore how you can volunteer.
