Child Outreach Partnership Initiative, Incorporated or C.O.P.I.I (from the Romanian word “copii” for children) is an art therapies summer camp for abandoned children in Romania. We couple expressive therapists from the United States with orphanage teachers and invite groups of high school students to develop a mentoring relationship with the children that will prosper year round. C.O.P.I.I. combats the commonly held perception that the children are incapable of inventiveness by educating camp participants in a new way of working with the children and fostering respect for each child’s individuality and creative potential.
C.O.P.I.I. is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization. Donations may be tax deductible.
