National Association of Realtors - GADs Give Back!

You can Create Opportunities To Succeed!

The state and local Government Affairs Directors are excited to give back to an impactful organization in Detroit this year.

For 40 years, COTS has been committed to serving the most vulnerable members of the Detroit community by providing emergency shelter, affordable housing and more. COTS is on a mission to create opportunities for families overcoming poverty to collaborate, thrive and succeed in building strong and stable households, neighborhoods and communities. 

COTS provides housing and support to nearly 1,000 people daily —and more than 60 percent of those served are children. Programs include family-only emergency shelter for families; supportive housing with assistance for addiction, disability or illness; affordable housing; and children’s services such as learning labs to support academic success, drop-in child care to help working parents, and child development services for families experiencing homelessness. 

*“It takes a village to raise a child.” – African Proverb *

Everyone plays a part in the success of children in our communities. Join the village and partner with COTS as they partner with Detroit families on their journey to stability and self-sufficiency.  Together, we can help to break the cycle of poverty for families and “Create Opportunities To Succeed!” 

Your generous donation makes this work possible. Thank you for supporting COTS programs. Please share this page with as many people as possible!
