How You Can Help Build a Safer Community
Become part of the Kids Kottage family today and help keep a child safe. We rely on the support of our community to care for children when home is not an option.
Help us provide a safe environment for children in times of crisis and a temporary home where children can rest, play, and receive professional care.
Protecting Childhood, One Month at a Time
By building a community of 400 monthly donors by 2029, we can create the consistent support needed to keep Kids Kottage open, prepared, and ready at all times. This foundation allows us to look ahead, with a long-term vision of expanding to 40 beds by 2040.
This ensures we can meet the needs of more children, now and in the years ahead.
