A Community in Need

Children of the Valley is sustained purely through the generous donations and sponsorships received from individuals much like yourself. Every penny raised goes directly into the program. Your contribution allows us to continue providing these incredible services to the children most in need from our community at no cost to them.

Opportunities to
Get Involved

We believe that every action taken on behalf of these children – positive word-of-mouth, donation, sponsorship, or volunteer hours – starts a ripple of change that reaches far and wide. There are a number of ways you can help. Choose the way that works best for you.

Annual Art Auction

Each spring we host the COV Annual Art Auction featuring beautiful works of art from beloved local artists such as Ben Mann, Jennifer Bowman, and Maria Wickwire. In addition to the generous donations from our local community of artists, it’s always with great honor that we present the heartfelt and intentional art from our students.

At the beginning of every school year, we challenge our students to dream big – to envision their futures and how they want their lives to be no matter how challenging their current circumstances may be. Over the next nine months, we guide the children as they develop their ideas into a plan for success. An essential component of this framework is acknowledging and honoring where each child comes from – their roots, family, culture, and personal identity. This is the inspiration behind each child’s art.
