FUND-A-CHILD INITIATIVE…During fiscal year 2012, CASA’s cost to provide a trained, responsible adult

to advocate for the best interests of 455 children was approximately $ 1,500 per

child. As a part of the Evening of Elegance Event, CASA is offering supporters the opportunity to help “Fund-A-Child” by

giving an unrestricted gift that will provide services for one child for a year.

The CASA Fund-A-Child initiative is a way for anyone in the community to helpCASA meet the demand for services

and ensure that every abused and neglected child in Denton County has a voice to

speak for them in court.

Since its inception in 2007, theFund-A-Child initiative has raised more

than $41,000 toward direct services for children in Denton County. As CASA celebrates the 15th Annual Evening of

Elegance, we need your help to provide the proven benefits of CASA advocacy to more children in need. Please join us in making this year’s Fund-A-Child effort the best yet!
