Come join me and register for the 30th Annual COTS Walk. Darn Tough Vermont will donate 100 pairs of socks to guests in COTS shelters in honor of the first 100 people to register: http://bit.ly/2CBUzkW. Please help us reach that first Walk milestone.
The Walk, presented by National Life Group, kicks off at 2 p.m. Sunday, May 5. This is the one day of the year that the nationally recognized nonprofit opens its programs to the community so people can see how their donations make a difference. Last year, COTS served nearly 2,400 people (including 756 children); COTS is the largest provider for people who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless in Vermont.
There is no minimum fundraising required for participation. To earn a COTS Walk T-shirt, walkers need to raise at least $150 (or $75 for age 12 and younger). For Walkers who elect to go the extra mile by taking the "COTS Walk Challenge" and pledging to raise $1,000, a generous challenge grant will match these donations. Challenge Walkers will receive a COTS Walk T-shirt, water bottle, and special recognition at the COTS annual meeting.
The family-friendly event includes children's activities, face painting, music, and free Ben & Jerry's ice cream for walkers. (A shorter route is available, particularly designed for families with young children.)
