Join CASA of the South Plains, Inc. July 9, 2009 at 11:30 am Location: # 24 Briercroft Office Park for a Forgotten Children event Event Goal: $8876
Every day, 850 kids enter the foster care system in the US because they cannot live safely at home.That’s enough kids to fill two elementary schools or 425 camp bunks. Enough kids to field 70 soccer teams.
As a CASA of the South Plains volunteer or supporter, you understand the vital role volunteers play in the lives of our area's most vulnerable abused and neglected children.
Last year in the South Plains, 352 court appointed advocates served 901 children. Unfortunately, that left over 450 waiting for their own advocate.
By joining the Forgotten Children Campaign, you can help close the gap by raising money to put a trained, committed advocate into the life of a local child who needs a safe, permanent home. The cost of advocacy for one child for one year is $634.
Every dollar raised from this campaign directly benefits children in the South Plains as CASA strives to provide more advocates for children in our area.
