Shine a light of hope this Holiday Season!

Dear Friend of CASA:Today in Maryland, nearly 5,000 abused and neglected children are out there, separated from family and friends, just hoping for a guiding light to help them through the holidays.For many of these children, the light they seek can be found in the eyes of a caring, compassionate, and loving Court Appointed Special Advocate -- or CASA volunteer. Someone to speak up for their best interests and show them they care. Someone to visit them on their toughest of days and help shine a light during very dark times.Friend of CASA, you, too, can shine a little light this holiday season by helping to bring more CASAs into the lives of children in need with a tax-deductible gift to MD CASA Association today. With your help, more children will be on their way to finding safe, permanent homes.OUR MISSION: In partnership with our fifteen affiliated CASA programs, we work to ensure every victim of child abuse and neglect their right to grow up in safe and permanent homes. This mission is carried out through the efforts of professionally-trained volunteers, appointed by the court to speak up for the best interests of children who are under the protection of the courts.
