Cope Foundation 19

In the quiet corners of Chautauqua County, a silent crisis is unfolding. A thousand young hearts are carrying burdens too heavy for their years—loss, grief, and the shadow of opioids that took their parents away. These children, innocent victims of a battle they never chose, are waiting for a glimmer of hope, a hand to hold, a chance to heal.

Cope Foundation 19 stands as a beacon of that hope. We are more than a non-profit; we are a promise to these children that they are not forgotten. Our mission is to mend the broken spirits of these young souls, to offer them the support, guidance, and love they desperately need to navigate through life's toughest challenges.

But we cannot do this alone. We are reaching out to you—our community, our friends, our family—to join us in this crucial mission. Your donation, no matter the size, can light up a child's life. It can provide the counseling, mentorship, and activities that teach them they are valued, they are strong, and they can dream of brighter days.

Let's pull together for the children of Chautauqua County. Let's give them the childhood they deserve. Please, open your hearts and help us support these precious lives. Every dollar brings us closer to a future where no child has to cope alone.

Donate now. Help us change their story.

Sponsorship Opportunities (per child)

Social Interaction Sponsor - $500

Children will attend fun, youthful activities such as water parks, zoos, theatre performances, nature preserves, and many other outlets to allow them to just be a kid and have a stress-free day. Your sponsorship will help us give every child an outlet to have a stress- and worry-free day, which is the first step to gaining the trust of children who have suffered the loss of a parent.

Physical Healing - $1,200

By having children participate in the physical healing activities, they will experience an outlet through active boxing, martial arts, gymnastics, fitness/gym, basketball, and other positive sports. Sponsorship support will pay for registration and fees associated with participating in a minimum of two (2) organized physical activities.

Life Coaching (counseling) - $1,100

Each child will participate in life coaching classes led by trained counselors to help them better understand the effects of drugs and how to process loss, especially of a parent. Sponsorship support will pay for the costs of family counseling and life coaching to help each child relate to the significant stresses of death or incarceration. We anticipate the need for each family to participate in several coaching sessions.

You can make a difference by donating today to Cope Foundation 19.

To help children who have lost a parent to opioid addiction either by abandonment, imprisonment, or death and develop hope and resilience to live fulfilling and purposeful lives. Helping children in our community get away from the stress of poverty, drugs, and lack of support is our primary purpose. This begins with getting children away from the emotional scramble of depression by taking them to a fun place filled with social interaction. Then the work begins. . .
