Dear Neighbors,
Please join me in supporting COTS (Committee on Temporary Shelter):
Register today for the 33rd annual COTS Walk, presented by Rice Lumber. The COTS Walk, is in person this year, and is the nonprofit's largest annual event and a critical fundraiser to provide shelter, services, and housing to people who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless in Vermont.
Beginning Friday, April 1, COTS will share on their website weekdays educational, fun, and family-friendly activities to do to connect, learn, and support COTS. Check these out at https://cotsonline.org/cotswalk/2022
On COTS Walk Day – Sunday, May 1st-- walk with us live and in person! Music and registration kicks off at 1 p.m. and the Walk begins at 2 p.m. The Walk will take you on a tour of seven shelters and facilities that COTS operates in Burlington. Each stop will educate you on the services provided there, as well as provide some entertainment with music and activities for all ages. Note: we will not be entering COTS shelter spaces, however we will have interactive features/ installations outside of each area.
Register or donate today at www.cotsonline.org or call (802) 864-7402 for more information.
Our fundraising goal is $205,000. Thanks to our generous sponsors, all money raised by Walkers goes directly to service and to support families and individuals in our community who are facing the crisis of homelessness. Last year, COTS served 2,222 people including 333 children.
