One of our biggest fundraising days of the year is right around the corner- and you can help us kick off a season of generosity for CASA of Luzerne County!
On Giving Tuesday, November 29, we are partnering with AllOne Charities to match your donation. AllOne Charities will match the first $1000.00 we raise on Giving Tuesday. Also every $250 CASA of Luzerne County raises on Giving Tuesday we will be entered into a drawing to be matched by a generous local foundation.
Every dollar raised goes towards recruiting, training and supporting volunteer advocates who give a voice to the children in the dependency court system in Luzerne County. There are over 500 children spending the holidays in the foster care system from our community- help us give them hope and joy today and for their future.
An advocate was assigned to a 6 year old boy when he entered the court system, within 30 days he was moved to his second foster home and his advocate came to the door with his favorite snack after only meeting him once. Within another 30 days he was moved to a third foster home. The advocate came to the door again with a friendly smile for him. He looked at her in amazement, commenting, “ How do you keep finding me when I don’t even know where I am?” This advocate is that one person, that support, that voice and that guiding light that he needs in a confusing world. Help CASA of Luzerne County to continue to bring these lights to the children who most need them.
It’s not too soon to give. The link is NOW open for Giving Tuesday. Thank you for your support and helping CASA of Luzerne County and the volunteer advocates continue their mission.
