CASSOPOLIS – On Saturday, April 21, Cass County CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) will be hosting its first "CASA Blanca" event.
It will be a silent and live auction with many exciting items up for grabs which have been donated by both private parties and generous local businesses.
The event will be at Orchard Hills Country Club in Buchanan from 6 to 9 p.m. with hors d'oeuvres and a cash bar.
There will also be live entertainment.
Tickets cost $20 per person and can be purchased from either CASA board members or CASA staff members.
Cass County CASA is a non-profit agency of trained volunteers from the community who are appointed by the court to advocate for abused and neglected children in Cass County.
Currently there are 152 children in the foster care system in Cass County who would benefit from having a CASA volunteer. You can help these children by attending this event, thereby donating to the CASA program.
All contributions are tax-deductible.
For more information on tickets for this event, or the Cass County CASA program, contact Lisa Schmidt, CASA program director, at (269) 445-4431 or by e-mail at casscocasa@yahoo.com.
