Kids Kottage Monthly Donor Program

Help keep Kids Kottage ready for every child who needs a safe place.

Kids Kottage is Edmonton and Northern Alberta’s place of safety for children in crisis. When families face overwhelming situations, we are here to provide immediate care, shelter, and support.

Monthly donors make that possible.

Impact Of Your Donations

400 Donors. 40 Beds. One Future.

Kids Kottage is building toward the future of care in our community. By reaching 400 monthly donors by 2029, we can create the stable funding needed to operate with confidence, consistency, and readiness. This foundation allows us to grow responsibly, with a long-term goal of expanding to 40 beds by 2040. This is how we ensure more children have access to safety, care, and support when they need it most.

Monthly donations provide stability. They allow Kids Kottage to plan ahead, maintain staffing, and keep every room ready for the moment a child arrives.

Unlike one-time gifts, monthly support ensures that care is always available, not just during fundraising seasons.
