Youth activities
All of the Children who are enrolled in the Cope Foundation 19 Circle of Light will have the opportunity to participate in our bi-monthly activity days. This special day is designed to allow the children to have fun, learn activity skills, socialize with many new friends and most importantly, be stress free.
On Saturday February 3, 2024, Cope Foundation 19 took some of the clients to a bowling outing held at Luck Lanes bowling Alley of Fredonia. These children were in the company of their parents and or grandparents. Family unity is key.
These children are very competitive and determined to have the highest scores. Game on! But their goals exceeded our desires to win. Several of the children achieved higher scores. The adults asked for a rematch.
Watching the children and families laugh and simply have a great time assured Cope Foundation 19 that our mission is reaching our goals and accomplishing our mission statement.

October 7th, some of the Cope Foundation 19 children enjoyed an amazing outdoor event held at Harvest View Halloween activity center of Fredonia. The children and parents enjoyed so much fun while visiting several adorable animals, many obstacles, a large bounce pumpkin, rides, and several activities. Not to mention good food and a family environment. The Cope Foundation 19 takes the children, and the parents, on an excursion and adventure event. This is an incredible opportunity to bond with positive people and especially family. You can tell by the photos how much fun we had. A special thanks to my amazing wife, Kristy Matteson for the planning of this event.
The CopeFoundation 19 had a blast with the children who are participants with our programs. We enjoyed nature while kayaking accross the Cassadaga Lake. A special thanks to Mike, with Evergreen Outfitters who not only rented the boats to us, but had us all learn the safety and requirements necessary for with these crafts. Thank you to Ross, Kristy, Josh, Kat, Andrew, Moriah and Bill for taking the time to share this event.
Stay tuned for our next event coming soon.
