CoDA
continues to be committed to utilizing your financial
gifts to assist those little people that most need
your help. One of the ways CoDA is attempting to
accomplish this, is to amass a long-term investment
endowment that will provide ongoing support to persons
with dwarfism indefinitely.
While
doing this, CoDA will balance these long-term endowment
goals with the objectives of much needed immediate
assistance of those that require urgent life-changing
financial assistance.
The best
example of this is our new friend Chance (who was
on one episode of last season's Little People Big
World). We could not stand by and watch this bright
young boy stay one day longer in the institution
while his eager adoptive parents wait to bring him
home.
Martin
Klebba (above), who starred in Pirates of the Caribbean,
helped start the CoDA Foundation.
While
CoDA is NOT an adoption agency and does not "place"
or match adoption cases, we are committed to building
up the financial resources that will enable us to
provide assistance in and many other areas.
However,
none of these goals can be met without your generous
financial gifts. I realize we live in a world of
apathy. However, if everyone reading this message
were to send CoDA even a few dollars, it would make
a huge difference in someone’s life.

The Pirate
Wenches of New Orleans aspires to be a non-profit
organization whose mission is to bring the 17 th
century to life in an imaginative world of fun,
recreation and discovery of what that era was for
the women of that time who associated and consorted
with the buccaneers and scallywags of the high seas.
Those
times were hard and barbarous, especially for the
ladies. We can appreciate the endurance and ferocity
of these few women who entered that male world.
That is why we see them with admiration, even though
we understand and that their lot was often less
than honorable.
In that
sense we intend to support the community by helping
to support the health and education of at risk women
and of this port city who need a basic shelter to
live, like the women’s shelter Called St Jude
Communitty Center, located in the French Quarters.
We intend to help supply the basic needs for their
endurance and resistance against the storms of life.
