Dear Neighbors,
The "virtual" COTS Walkathon is "happening" on Sunday May 3 and I am asking you to help me reach an important fund raising goal for an organization that is currently "standing tall in a strong wind!" The 2020 Covid-19 realities are present and very challenging for everyone. These realities are especially rough on those without housing or those who are at risk of losing their housing.
So what has COTS done? COTS has worked creatively and collaboratively with Burlington elected officials, State of Vermont and legislative leaders, partner social service agencies and community leaders to make sure that homeless adults and families, and those at risk of losing their housing, have safe options during this most challenging time.
I am so grateful for the staff and the Board of COTS - for their persistence, care and creativity!
I hope that you will join me in supporting COTS - and help me reach - OR EXCEED - my goal of raising $1500 in support of COTS programs to help many of our most vulnerable neighbors - children and adults. Please show me that I should have committed to the $3100 goal!!!! I would be thrilled if our gifts met the $3100 goal level as this is the 31st COTS WALK - it is also the 31st COTS Walk that I have had the privilege of participating in as I was fortunate to be on the first COTS Walk organizing committee in 1990!
Please donate today - online - the link is below - or by check to COTS mailed to my address: 206 Meadowood Drive in South Burlington, 05403.
Another option - there is still time.... sign up for the COTS (virtual) Walk and invite your family and friends to give!
Thank you so very much!
With much appreciation, Lucy
