It's Kid Walk time again! Please help us reach our $1,000 goal.
Abigail and Maren have their own team this year so they will be asking for pledges for their Bounce-A-Thon team, too!
We'll be raffling off a case of Starry Night wine so let me know if you want to be entered in the raffle!
CASA info below. Thanks in advance!
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 9th. Our goal is to raise $1,000 dollars--or more!
CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) recruits, trains, and supports 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 "Sweet Peas Learning Center" 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!
