In celebration of our 30th year - Kids Kottage is introducing a unique and meaningful way to support children in crisis. Our Surrounded by Love fundraiser invites you to become a part of the care we give through purchasing your "message" tile that will be displayed along the hallway walls in our children's shelter. 

Each tile comes with a special feature—a personalized video message from you! These messages will be accessible via a QR code printed on your tile. With tablets provided at our facility, children can simply scan any QR code and hear an uplifting message from the caring community that stands behind them. Together, these message tiles will serve as words of encouragement, hope, and love for the children at Kids Kottage, offering them comfort whenever they need it most. 

Why This Matters

Kids Kottage is a safe haven for children facing crisis situations. Your contribution is more than just a donation—it’s a personal connection that helps brighten a child’s day, reminding them that they are not alone. Your support, combined with heartfelt words of encouragement, has the power to provide emotional strength and resilience for the children we serve.
