My personal message:
My name is John Records. I get to work as Executive Director of COTS.

COTS is facing severe funding challenges because of our sluggish economy.

As each of us considers the federal Economic Stimulus rebates coming in the next few weeks, there are many ways we can choose to use this unplanned income. Would you please consider using some or all of of your Economic Stimulus check to help COTS?

I'm proud to say that members of the COTS Board of Directors are donating their Economic Stimulus checks to COTS.  I personally will match your donation from my Economic Stimulus check, up to an aggregate total of $600.

Helping COTS stay strong in these hard times will allow us to continue offering the comprehensive services that we are known for: "A hand up, not a hand out" that gets families and singles back on their feet.

If you'd like to help us right away,
we've made it really easy for you to donate--just click the Give Now button above!

Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support my fundraising efforts.

Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!

Also, it's really easy for you to make your own fundraising page for COTS.  Just click here.

With appreciation,
John
