What does Cathi's Table do?

We provide financial resources to  disabled and special needs organizations or individuals for therapies, under-funded qualified expenses, job training or unreimbursed qualified medical expenses.  Look at the "Our Progress" tab for recent examples.

Other examples may include: 

a. Vocational education (ie. dog grooming school) – Scholarships up to $1000/year – actual amount awarded will change based on the qualified need. 

b. Registration Fees to attend a camp/class/conference (i.e. life skills)

c. A special tool to allow speech to text communication

d. Medical gap in coverage (i.e. hearing aids that a medical professional has deemed necessary but there is gap in medical coverage)

e. Shared financial responsibility for Service Dogs

f. Tools for under-funded therapies or justifiable needs

g. Successful proof of completion is required in order to show funds were used as intended. Funds will be subject to reimbursement if money was not properly used. (Fund are limited and will be tightly managed.)

Who is Cathi?

Cathi Gomez (1962-2022) built a legacy as a school teacher in Douglas County, Colorado.  When she was not working, she dedicated her time to making lives better for all around her.  She was particularly fond of serving Special Needs individuals.  Her sister Tina (pictured) and her sister-in-law Asha contributed to her passion.

Cathi's two children Lauren Gomez and Madison Gomez alongside Cathi's husband Mark Gomez decided they wanted a way to keep Cathi's legacy alive.  That is the reason Cathi's Table was created.
