CASA of Collin County

I had the pleasure to volunteer at the CASA of Collin County Voice for Children Gala 2011 themed Mardi Gras Masquerade Laissez Les Bon Temps Roulez. CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) of Collin County was incorporated in 1991 to provide trained community volunteers to advocate in the best interests of abused and neglected children involved in the court system. CASA's mission statement is 'to provide trained community volunteers to advocate the best interests of abused and neglected children involved in the court system. CASA's goals is for the volunteers to be a voice for these children in court. The results is that each child is place into a safe, loving home where he or she can thrive. I was working at one of the silent auction tables and I got to meet a bunch of interesting people along the way. This was an awesome event to be part of and I can't wait for next year to volunteer my time again, especially since it is for such a great cause.

Here are some pictures from the event:
