Christmas on the Streets, also known as COTS, is a not-for-profit organisation supporting men and women experiencing homelessness. COTS is a grassroots movement offering companionship, food, clothing, sanitary products, gifts and essential items to individuals and communities that are in need. The movement strives towards breaking the stigma surrounding those who have found themselves in unfortunate circumstances and reminds whoever they encounter that they are unconditionally loved, important and worthy. Christmas on the Streets came to fruition in Melbourne, Australia in December 2016. Since its establishment, through grassroots street outreach, annual events, school workshops and interstate programs, COTS has led hundreds of volunteers around the world in supporting tens of thousands of people in need across Australia as well as fundraised for a number of international campaigns in countries including Cambodia, Ethiopia, Mozambique, Nepal, Philippines, Uganda, Malawi and Kenya. We believe in a world where homelessness ceases to be a reality and we endeavour to serve towards bringing our vision to fruition.
