About us
Cocotree Kids is a registered 501c3 nonprofit with a mission to improve underwear insecurity for at-risk youth in Massachusetts. We collect and distribute new underwear to children and young adults through our partnerships with food pantries, homeless shelters and youth-focused social services organizations. By providing a new pair of underwear to a child in need, we empower their sense of dignity and comfort, allowing them to focus on their education and achieving their goals. Gently-used clothing, shoes, toys, etc. can be donated to children in need. But, underwear is an often-overlooked item because it needs to be new, which leaves children and young adults with little to no access to this essential need. Cocotree Kids was created to ensure that all children have the dignity and comfort that they deserve by providing them with new underwear that properly fits.

Thank you WBZ | CBS Boston for featuring us on Levan Out Live yesterday! Awareness is so important for a small but quickly growing nonprofit like ours—especially as we start our Season of Giving campaign from now until the end of the year. Special thanks to Charles River School for hosting our event, and to the 44 middle schoolers who packed 1,232 pairs of underwear for 176 kids! Did you know that 1 in 3 kids in Massachusetts experience clothing insecurity? Their access to underwear is even worse because unlike outer clothing, underwear cannot be donated for legal and hygienic purposes. Here at Cocotree Kids we are on a mission to provide new underwear to underserved youth across MA for their dignity and security. Our goal this Season of Giving is to raise $30,000 so we can purchase 60,000 pairs of underwear for 8,500 kids. Help us kick off our Season of Giving with a donation that will make a huge impact in the life of children across the state, as we aspire to Support Every Child, Every Wear. https://lnkd.in/eakACz8E

WE DID IT - THANK YOU! National Underwear Day was created to celebrate underwear and the freedom of self-expression that comes with wearing it. Cocotree Kids is using it as a day to not only celebrate and be grateful for underwear - but also to bring awareness to the fact that not everyone has access to it. We set out to raise $5,000 and provide over 1,400 kids with 10,000 pairs of underwear. Thanks to your incredible support, we were able to exceed our initial goal by 18% and provide 1,686 kids with 11,800 pairs of underwear! We couldn’t have made this kind of impact without the support of each of you. We appreciate every donation, share, mention and level of support!

National Underwear Day is four days away, but we’ve already exceeded our goal of $5,000!!! Thank you so much to everyone who contributed and supported us. 10,000 pairs of undies will go out to 1,428 kids! From now until August 5, our new goal is “10 for 10.” We would love to reach 50 donors, and we are currently at 40. If we get 10 people at $10 each, we will reach 110% of our goal! The need for underwear is endless, and National Underwear Day helps us bring awareness to this unseen and unknown essential for kids. With your help, we can make an even bigger impact! https://lnkd.in/ehRiKrJs

It turns out there's a national day for everything--including underwear! While National Underwear Day, is on Monday, August 5. It was created to celebrate underwear and the freedom of self-expression that comes with wearing it, Cocotree Kids is using it as a day to bring awareness to the fact that not everyone has access to new underwear. Cocotree Kids has a goal of raising $5,000 to provide over 1,400 at-risk kids throughout the state of Massachusetts with 10,000 pairs of new underwear.
