CHILDREN SERVED

COTC Dominica is a subsidiary of Children of the Caribbean Inc. [Children of the Caribbean and the Americas] founded 2010 CE.

Our Purpose

We exist because every child deserves a fair chance at a brighter future. Our mission is to break the chains of poverty, inequality, and limited opportunity that grip disadvantaged children in the Caribbean and the Americas. We believe that with the right support and resources, these young lives can flourish and realize their boundless potential. By providing education, healthcare, economic empowerment, and a strong foundation for resilience against climate-related challenges, we strive to empower them to not only overcome adversity but to thrive, transforming their dreams into realities. Together, we are dedicated to rewriting the narratives of their lives, ensuring that no child is left behind and that every child has the opportunity to shine.

What They Say

  • I started working at a soup kitchen in skid row of Los Angeles when I was 13 years old, and the first day, I felt really scared. I was young, and it was rough and raw down there, and though I was with a great volunteer group, I just felt overwhelmed.

  • Be of service. Whether you make yourself available to a friend or co-worker, or you make time every month to do volunteer work, there is nothing that harvests more of a feeling of empowerment than being of service to someone in need.
