Support Us
CASA for Children relies on the generosity of our community to fund
critical advocacy services for the abused and neglected children we
serve. Following are some of the ways that an individual can help an
abused child.
Your donations to CASA for Children support the recruitment, training and
supervision of volunteers who serve our community's abused and neglected
children. Our goal is to serve all children who come
through the foster care system in the following areas:
- Staunton,
- Waynesboro,
- Augusta County,
- Lexington,
- Rockbridge County,
- Covington
- Alleghany County
Your donation directly impacts the lives of abused children and helps
ensure that they grow up in safe, permanent and loving homes.
CASA for Children is a 501(c)(3) public charity. All donations are tax-deductible as allowed by law.
Serving Justice Campaign
The Serving Justice Campaign provides substantial support for CASA for Children
to serve abused and neglected children throughout the year. Our Serving Justice Campaign begins in March each year. Your
financial donation is a gift that offers hope and the chance of a much
brighter future for the children we serve.

Giving Circle
This winter our Board of Directors is kicking off a new fundraising/awareness initiative for CASA through The Giving Circle.
The Giving Circle
is a gathering of friends for a fun evening while impacting their
community.At the end of the evening, friends are invited to make a
donation to CASA for Children for the amount it would cost to eat out
for dinner.
We invite you to consider hosting a Giving Circle
for your friends and family. CASA will provide you with invitations,
brochures and instructions on how to host this meaningful evening.
Please contact our office for more information.
Honorarium

loved ones with a gift to CASA for Children in their names. Or celebrate the

Memorium
