Thank you for your interest in being a prospective volunteer at Colette's Children's Home!

Our organization provides emergency and transitional housing services to homeless single women and homeless mothers with children who would otherwise have nowhere to go. We believe that the children in our programs are truly the innocent victims of the generational cycle of poverty. It is our mission to provide our women and children with a safe home and nurturing environment where they obtain compassionate support and services needed to achieve self-sufficiency. Women and children who come to Colette's are empowered by us to become independent and self-sufficient through an array of wraparound services and programs.

We have rapidly grown over the last several years to now have 7 shelters within various cities in Orange County. Since our start in 1998, we have proudly served over 1,400 mothers and children who have passed safely through the doors of Colette’s and on to a better life. The love and dedication of our staff, volunteers, and donors have made a lasting impact in their lives. We invite you to join us in being a part of this important mission.
