Are you ready to help them? Let’s become a volunteers...
Red Oaks Collective was born out of a deeply personal and painful experience that changed our lives forever. After our son—Mitch and Stephanie’s child—was abused and mistreated in a traditional school setting, we were faced with a reality no parent should ever have to endure. That moment became a turning point; it propelled us to take action, not just for our son, but for every child who deserves to feel safe, protected, and valued.
We’re hosting a crawfish boil fundraiser to support the technology needs of Red Oaks Cottage School, where we serve children with special needs and medically fragile needs. On the day of the event, you’ll drive through and pick up 4 pounds of hot, seasoned crawfish along with corn and a potato.

Learn MoreOur “why” is rooted in the belief that no child should ever experience harm in a place meant for growth and learning. Every child—no matter their abilities, challenges, or medical needs—deserves a community where they are not just accommodated, but truly embraced. Red Oaks Collective exists to be that place—a safe haven where families are supported, differences are celebrated, and children can thrive without fear. This is more than our mission; it is our promise that no family will ever have to walk this journey alone.
