Looking to donate as a group or put on a drive?

COTS is looking for welcome home baskets for clients moving into permanent housing. If you are interested in donating with a group or organizing a drive, this is a great way to give to our clients! You can find a list of items needed for welcome home baskets and starter food kits by clicking here.

 

Please deliver welcome baskets to the Mary Isaak Center.

900 Hopper St Petaluma, CA, 94953.

 

For questions contact COTS’ Engagement Specialist at:

“Moving is stressful for anyone, but can be especially hard when you have been without a home for a while. Many of our participants moving into their new home don’t have basic household supplies or food – and are limited on cash to purchase these items. These Welcome Home Baskets and Starter Food Kits can be a life-saver for these families and individuals as they get back on their feet.”
