$5,000 Goal

Supporting Tarrant County's most vulnerable children starts with you. Often times, when children come into CPS custody, all they have are the clothes on their backs. When they lay their head down at night in a new, unfamiliar place, many times it is not in a bed. For these children, safe sleep is a priority, and that is what Cots4Tots is passionate about. With your donation, you are helping us provide toddler beds and Pack 'n Plays so babies and toddlers have a place to safely sleep. The importance of having a good bed is critical for reducing the risk of sleep-related deaths from SIDS or accidental suffocation. For toddlers, after the reach a year old, it is important for their development to get enough sleep, which may not happen if they don't have a comfortable and safe place to sleep.

Our short term goal as a new organization is to support the Tarrant County Rainbow Room as a Community Partner providing necessary resources to assist case workers, families and children in crisis. Our long term goal is to expand this effort to all 11 Texas Rainbow Room chapters. We can only achieve both of these with your generous donations.

Giving Activity
