Friends of CASA | Orange County Details
Friends of CASA (FOCASA) was founded by the Junior League over 30 years ago and began as a small group of dedicated women who planned and executed small fundraising events to support CASA.CASA are a privately-funded non-profit organization that serves severely abused, neglected and abandoned children through the recruitment, training and continued support of volunteers who advocate and mentor these children, representing their best interest in the courtroom and other settings. And CASA OC focuses solely on the kids in our local community.As CASA has grown, so have the Friends of CASA. Today the Friends of CASA members produce the annual Friends of CASA Holiday Luncheon, a fashion show event at The Ritz Carlton in Laguna Niguel, which raises over $500,000 annually for CASA's cause. In addition to planning exciting fundraising events, Friends of CASA members have the opportunity to attend educational trainings and courthouse tours to learn more about the challenges facing our foster youth. Members also participate in community impact days and volunteer hands-on in the community alongside other Friends of CASA members.To learn more about Friends of CASA please contact Susan Kenny at advancement@casaoc.org.
