Welcome!

We've made it simple for you to raise funds quickly & easily for COTS in California.  (This is NOT the COTS in Vermont!  Two great organizations with the same name.)

Getting started is easy
It only takes a few minutes to create your own, personal Online Fundraising Page:

  • Click the Get Started button
  • Personalize the text and the photo on your Online Fundraising Page to express why you feel it is important to help COTS.
  • Send the link out to your friends, family, colleagues - anyone you think will help you reach your goal.

     

Because of you…

  • a father is becoming able to financially support his family, having returned to school to learn a new profession after an injury prevented him from continuing in his former line of work.
  • a mother is reclaiming her self esteem, cleaning up her credit and improving her budgeting skills which will enable her to succeed in acquiring a home for her children.
  • a child is gaining confidence in herself and her parent, feeling safe, nurtured and well fed instead of having a hungry belly full of fear and apprehension.

We are very grateful for the many ways in which COTS has been blessed this past year. We’ve sheltered 240 children and 835 adults. 100,000 meals and 500,000 pounds of food were provided to our residents and neighbors in the community. Over 90% of the participants in our Mary Isaak Center transitional housing program have been helped to go into homes of their own.  

From all of us in the COTS family, thank you for sharing in our life-changing work with your kind support.
