EmpowermentPrograms
Appreciating The Individual
Empowerment comes from a sense of appreciation and accomplishment. Alongside our non-profit partners, COS has implemented a number of programs to celebrate our children at an individual level and provide them with life-enriching, confidence-building activities.
Birthday Bunch
Launched in 2008, the COS Birthday Bunch serves all five of our partner shelters. The Birthday Bunch supplies birthday cakes, balloons and other favors for children to allow them to celebrate their special day. Our Board Members personally bring cakes to the children and the entire shelter community comes together to wish these children a Happy Birthday. Each child also receives a small wrapped gift and a special birthday card.
Summer Camp
COS partners with a variety of organizations across the city to keep our children active during the summer through summer camps. This support critically allows care takers to maintain employment and alleviates the concern for summer childcare while children are out of school.
SantaFest
In December, COS hosts our annual SantaFest Holiday Dinner, inviting all families enrolled with our partners to enjoy a festive holiday meal and celebration. With wonderful partners, children engage in fun arts & craft activities, LEGOS, and more!
