Welcome to my CASA Kid Walk page. This is my first year on a Kid Walk team and I am so honored to be part of an organization that does such incredible work.   I'm a proud member of the Mansion Mamas.   Our team captain, Patty, is a volunteer CASA advocate and knows firsthand that CASA really makes a difference to abused and neglected kids. 

The Kid Walk is an annual event put on by CASA. Teams compete to see who can raise the most money between now and the Kid Walk on October 13th. Our goal is to raise $1,000 dollars--or more!

CASA stands for Court Appointed Special Advocates. They recruit, train, and support community volunteers who are advocating for abused and neglected children. When children are removed from their homes by Child Welfare Services due to abuse or neglect, they become part of an overburdened system.  Lawyers, social workers, and foster parents have serveral cases and kids competing for their time and attention.  A CASA gets to focus on just one child. 

If you don't have the time to be a CASA, the second best thing you can do is donate. Make it possible for others to become CASAs.  Only 2 in 4 children who need a CASA get a CASA. Help expand the training schedule, grow the advocate support system, and increase the volunteer advocate pool.  Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. No bake sales, no candle orders, no raffle tickets. It is the most efficient way to support my fundraising efforts.

If you don't feel comfortable donating online, you can send a check with "Mansion Mamas" in the memo to:
CASA of Humboldt
2356 Myrtle Ave.
Eureka, CA 95501

Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!

Love and hugs!
