Opportunity Knocks LIVE
Opportunity Knocks Live is more than an event. It’s a national movement rooted in dignity, belonging, and real results. By sponsoring the tour, your organization will stand alongside Opportunity Knocks — America’s Best Feel-Good Show — to reach thousands of families across the country with the tools, resources, and hope they need to move forward.
Together, we can spark lasting change in communities nationwide while aligning your brand with one of the most inspiring initiatives in America today.
