Unsuccessful

Cocotree Kids’ mission is to improve underwear insecurity for at-risk youth in Massachusetts. By providing a new pair of underwear to every child in need for each day of the week, we empower that child’s sense of dignity and confidence, allowing them to focus on their education and encouraging their path to success. We distribute new underwear for free through strategic partnerships with local nonprofits, food pantries, homeless shelters, and social service organizations. We obtain the underwear from multiple cost effective sources – receiving in-kind donations from community collections, and purchasing from our wholesaler and manufacturer. This means that monetary donations enable us to purchase the sizes and amounts that are required at a fraction of the retail price. The current need for underwear for children in need in our community exceeds our current supply – we need your help!
