OUR MISSION
BRING HOPE TO THOSE IN NEED
Many families in Egypt struggle to live above the poverty line.
Your generosity can make a real difference.
All donations are fully tax-deductible.
COPTS is committed to serving as many disadvantaged people as possible to give them a brighter future.
COPTS Inc. was established in 1986 in Sydney by a group of good Samaritans, who felt for the poor and the needy in Egypt as well as in Australia, Africa and Thailand. With all volunteers and no administration costs, COPTS delivers 100% of all funds raised to those who need it most – and has done so for over 30 years. COPTS provides vital assistance to poor communities through job creation programs, family planning, medical care and education.

OUR IMPACT
For the families and children living in the areas we operate, uncertainty is part of the everyday – from uncertainty about opportunities to learn, right through to uncertainty about food security, clean water and access to healthcare. The work we do at COPTS is to break down those barriers, so they can focus on their own hopes and dreams for their future. It’s our goal to open up the pathways that help those struggling in the Coptic diaspora realise their dreams.
