CASA Gala 2025 takes place at Springfield Country Club
EVERY CHILD SEEN.
EVERY CHILD HEARD.
EVERY CHILD HOME.
Not every kid gets the childhood they deserve. Too many grow up in courtrooms and case files—moved from home to home, from school to school, with no one to speak up for what they need or who they are.
CASA Youth Advocates exists to rewrite those stories. Our mission is to connect children in or at risk of entering foster care with dedicated volunteers who advocate for their equity, stability, and a brighter future.
Research shows that it works: With CASA’s support, children spend less time in foster care, do better in school, and move through the adoption process faster. And all this would be impossible without the generous support of people like you. CASA’s Annual Gala is our biggest fundraiser of the year, and an incredible way to commit to standing up for the kids who need us; for the future they deserve.
