¡Bienvenido a COTS! COTS depende de voluntarios para brindar comidas calientes y nutritivas a sus clientes, para ayudarlos a encontrar y conservar una vivienda, y para que su estadía en nuestro centro Mary Isaak o en el Primer refugio familiar para niños sea lo más digna posible. Los voluntarios hacen el trabajo de 21 empleados de tiempo completo en COTS, y les dan vida a nuestros programas y servicios. Nos complace mucho darles la bienvenida a nuestro equipo.

• Musician or artist interested in teaching a class or performing
• Teaching a life-skills, art, or similar style class
• Your company or team is looking for a way to give back to the community together.

Never done this type of work? No worries, COTS will provide:

• Training on and use of a COTS Box Truck for drivers (no need to use your car!)
• Assistance loading and unloading  
• Paid background check (for drivers)
• Additional training when needed

We accept volunteers on both a short-term and long-term basis. Our core volunteers commit to volunteering on a regular basis, usually once a week. This is a great way to build long-lasting friendships.

We talk about our families, our circle of friends, and the meaning of life. It’s one of the ways you can get together with someone without spending money or consuming anything.
