CASA of the High Plains
Join Court Appointed Special Advocates of the High Plains in its annual auction fundraiser running now through March 28.
Each year CASA hosts its Valentine’s Evening event. This fundraiser includes a dinner, live auction, silent auction and games. However, with the effects of COVID still prevalent, CASA decided to not host the 2021 Valentines Evening. In place of this major fundraiser, it is having an online auction, Lucky Bids for CASA Kids.
Some of the items up for grabs this year include Brews on the Bricks tickets, Lee Brice concert tickets, gift cards to area businesses and restaurants, a guided hunting package, a Ring Camera, fire pit with S'more package, fitness memberships, meat bundle, Kendra Scott jewelry, coffee for a year, KU signed basketball, Kate Spade purse package, and much more.
In 2020, about 100 new Child in Need of Care cases opened in the 23rd Judicial District (Ellis, Rooks, Trego and Gove counties). Some examples are children without adequate parental care; who have suffered physical, emotional, or sexual abuse or neglect; or who have been abandoned.
CASA gives these children a voice.
CASA of the High Plains’ mission is to advocate for the best interests of abused and neglected children so they can find safe, permanent homes as soon as possible. CASA provides compassionate, highly trained volunteers who are empowered by the courts to provide this advocacy in the 23rd Judicial District.
CASA is reaching for a goal of at least $10,000 through this online event. All proceeds from the event will go toward the recruitment, training and managing of CASA volunteers, so that they can advocate for these children who desperately deserve and need their help.
Jeter Law Firm is the lead sponsor for the event.
