Project Description

We are happy to announce that COA Youth & family Centers will be receiving donations this April through the Fresh Thyme Giving Bag P rogram!

The program offers a special Giving Bag featuring a Giving Tag. This tag allows Fresh Thyme shoppers to direct a $1 donation to qualifying non-profits. What a great opportunity for us to raise money simply through the sale of a reusable shopping bag!

We continually appreciate all the support you give, which has allowed COA Youth & Family Centers to maintain the work we do in our community. The Fresh Thyme Giving Bag Program is a simple and fun way to continue this support! Please visit any Fresh Thyme store location, buy the Giving Bag and follow the instructions on the Giving Tag to direct the $1 donation to our organization!

Imagine if every one of our supporters purchases just one bag? What if everyone bought two? Not to mention, purchasing these beautiful Fresh Thyme Giving Bags will support us while also helping to eliminate paper/plastic use!

Pass along this exciting news on to your friends and family. Let them know that the Fresh Thyme Giving Bags are located on various displays and at the checkout.

Thank you so much for your continued support of COA Youth and Family Centers!

Our Mission

COA Youth & Family Centers helps Milwaukee children, teens, and families reach their greatest potential through a continuum of educational, recreational, and social work programs offered through its urban community centers and rural camp facility. As a multicultural agency, COA values diversity and cooperation, and promotes growth and positive social interaction.

The COA Philosophy

COA Youth & Family Centers’ history is deeply rooted in the American Settlement House movement. The underlying foundation of this movement was that a holistic approach is essential to give children and families the tools to become self-sufficient. And more than a century later, COA continues to provide families with a holistic array of services to give children and families these tools to become stronger, healthier, and more self-sufficient.

Four-Star Organization

For nine consecutive years, COA has received a four-star rating from Charity Navigator, a national evaluator of nonprofit organizations. Only one percent of the nation's charities have received the highest four-star rating for twelve consecutive years.

When I was 20 and a new mom, I found the Family Center. At 22 with 2 kids, the center saved me time and time again. Today, 42 and pregnant with 4 kids under 3years old in my care, you brightened my rainy day as usual. So grateful for this resource!

"COA is a lifesaver!! We go stir crazy in the house. The kids love it here. I need to feel a social connection with other parents. I get so bored and lonely and isolated home with the kids all day. Also – social interactions for the toddlers is invaluable."

"I come to the COA to expose my son to other kids, so he can interact and learn from them. I appreciate the many different people from different cultures and walks of life. I love all the difference art projects that my son can try without messing up my house."

"I come to COA because it is an awesome, clean, friendly environment that is very well-suited to my kids. I also really appreciate the educational aspect of drop-in, such as crafts and songs. My kids would not be the same had we not been coming to COA. Thank you Anne and COA."
