CASA fund drive nears deadline

Published

on

CASA stands for Court Appointed Special Advocate and these are the people who advocate or speak for the infants and children of neglect and/or abuse who cannot speak for themselves.
Currently there are more than 100 children in Montague County helped by only 17 CASA volunteers.
There is an effort now underway to raise $10,000. If we can raise the $10,000 by April 15, the Priddy Foundation will provide the advantage of matching it so that $10,000 becomes $20,000.
CASA of Red River will use that money to provide a CASA Specialist for Montague County to provide these vital services to the children of our county. And if this effort is successful, even more CASA volunteers can provide the critical services needed by these children to grow into happy, mature, productive adults.
If you want to make a donation, volunteer time, or just find out more about CASA of Red River, call 940-766-0552 or visit the website at www.casawf.org.
