There are several ways that you can help make a difference:
Now is the time to give to the Annual Giving Campaign!
Please, Give the Gift of Hope this season: A holiday letter from Keisha Walker, CASA Executive Director
Join the Circle of Hope
Every child served by CASA needs a “Circle of Hope” surrounding him/her, made up of three people:
- A volunteer to serve him/her
- A staff person to train and mentor that volunteer
- Donors to fund those services
It costs $750 per child per year to provide all three of those elements and create a Circle of Hope—a circle that, once completed, opens new hope to that child and for his/her life. For this fiscal year, Memphis CASA stills needs 111 Circles of Hope to be funded.
As a former CASA child once said, "To give a child a CASA is to give them a voice. To give them a voice is to give them hope. And to give them hope is to give them the world."
Thank you to our FY09 Circle of Hope donors! And 2009 Light of Hope Awareness Project sponsors!
CASA Parties - Party for CASA in your CASA (Yes, it’s a play on words)! Did you know that individuals, businesses and organizations can host fundraising parties and events in support of Memphis CASA? Fundraising through “CASA Parties” is a great way to support CASA’s mission. A contribution, no matter how small or how large, makes a difference for the abused and neglected children waiting for CASA volunteers. And you can have fun while making a difference! Learn more... or check out Announcements for upcoming public CASA Parties!
Matching Gift Programs – Double or even triple the value of your gift with your employer’s Matching Gift Program. Just ask your human resource department or community investment department for a matching gift form, send it to us, and we will complete the paperwork for you. Many companies even make charitable donations, which match the time you spend volunteering.
Combined Federal Campaign- Are you a federal employee or military personnel? Please consider designating your workplace giving through the CFC to CASA. Our CFC code is 22490. Your contribution will help support our vital Advocacy Program and make difference in the lives of many children for generations to come.
Honor a Friend or Family Member - Have you ever had to find the perfect gift for that person who seems to already have everything? Consider making a contribution to CASA for birthdays, anniversaries and other holidays, or make a donation in memory of a loved one. CASA will then send a note of acknowledgement to notify the friend or family member of your choice that a generous donation has been made in their honor. It is a very special and meaningful gift that truly makes a life-long impact in a child's life. Simply indicate the occasion and honoree when you make your contribution.
Donate Other Resources – Become a Hero for CASA and be a link that provides daily essential resources to support our mission. Advertising space, office supplies, computers, beverages and snacks for training, marketing materials bearing the CASA logo, and catering for events and training are just a few of the ways to make a creative investment that will reap a return for a lifetime.
GoodSearch - Search the Internet like most of us? Support CASA with every search! Just start using Yahoo! powered GoodSearch.com as your search engine and they'll donate a penny to your favorite cause (CASA of Memphis and Shelby County) every time you do a search! In addition, do all of your shopping through their online shopping mall, GoodShop.com, where you can shop at more than 900 top online retailers and a percentage of your purchases will go to Memphis CASA, once you select us as the charity of your choice. You pay the same price as you normally would, but a donation goes to CASA!
E-Scrip - Support CASA every time you get groceries with a Schnucks eScrip Reloadable Gift Card! Just request a Schnucks card from Memphis CASA; bring your Schnucks card to any Mid-South Schnucks' cashier or customer service desk; and use cash, check, or credit to load the card up to $500. Memphis CASA will then automatically earn 5% against every dollar loaded! Request a card by calling 522-0200 or emailing beavoice@memphiscasa.org.
