Opportunity Reaching Everyone (ORE)
Unfortunately, financial burden keeps several students from attending Coloma Outdoor Discovery School each year. Although CODS does offer a limited number of scholarships for schools in need of financial assistance, we are unable to accommodate every request. In order to make outdoor school accessible to every child, we have created the ORE Fund to utilize support from the community. Our objective is to provide a “lucky strike” for teachers who have exhausted all other resources. If you, your workplace, or someone you know, might be interested in sponsoring a student, please contact Kindra Garcia at kindra@cods.org or 800.238.2298 x13.
Like any educational organization, we are always looking for resources
to improve our program. The following is a list of our current needs. If
