Raise Funds

The road through a transplant is long and difficult, and rarely understood by anyone who has not had the misfortune of traveling that path.  The Children’s Organ Transplant Association strives each day to make this journey a little less stressful for each of our families.

Giving Hope … Making Miracles is much more than a slogan for our organization – it is COTA’s guiding vision.  Since 1986, COTA has become the premier organization providing fundraising assistance to families facing a life-saving transplant.  Families from throughout the nation, representing every ethnic, economic, religious and social background, have worked with COTA.  Along the way we have shared tears, we have conquered huge obstacles, we have celebrated miracles, and every day, we have hoped.

Giving Hope:

“With the help of COTA, our volunteers were organized, motivated and well trained on how to raise funds to help with transplant-related expenses. This gave us tremendous hope as we started Ella’s transplant journey, and continues to give us hope today -- and will well into the future as funds will be available throughout Ella’s lifetime.”
