Get Involved, Make an Impact

Basic needs – like food, clothing, safe housing, and a good night’s sleep, are necessary to reach one's fullest potential. Without these, the ability to learn, form relationships, have confidence, and solve problems becomes infinitely more difficult. Because of your generosity, COR is able to help our students meet their basic needs so they have equal opportunities for success.

We also have multiple opportunities for engagement at different levels. Whether for individuals, groups, corporate partners or local businesses, we look forward to connecting! Please email our Development Officer, Justine Harrison at   [email protected] to learn more.

Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs

Recurring In-kind Needs

These are items that we always accept and that our youth always need. Please note that we value high quality donations (i.e. clothes that have never been worn, brand name snacks, etc.). We want the students we serve to have a dignified experience when accepting your support.

 

Volunteer With Us

Become a Food Rescue Volunteer and help us combat food insecurity and reduce food waste by rescuing healthy surplus food.

You’ll pick up food donations from a designated location and drive to our school-based always free CORner Store where you will unload, weigh, and stock the food you just rescued! Stocking and organizing is an important part as it not only ensures that we are following health protocols, but also ensures our parents, school staff, and students can shop with dignity each and every week!
