Mingle & Jingle
Wednesday evening, we hosted our annual Mingle & Jingle! An evening where our incredible advocates pick up their CASA children's wishes just in time to deliver them for the holiday season! We love gathering all the advocates together and always have a great time mingling and giving gifts! We could not have had a successful one without the help and support of everyone who has donated and contributed to making foster children's season bright!

For a child who has experienced neglect or abuse, having a caring CASA volunteer to advocate for them can make a life changing difference. Your gift can make a difference. Change a Child’s Story. bergencasa.org

For children in the foster care system, pursuing childhood activities can be a challenge because of frequent moves, resource challenges or shame. Our volunteers make sure the court knows when a child has special interests and help remove barriers so the child can participate in extracurricular activities. bergencasa.org

We're still holding a collection for diapers and wipes for our CASA babies! Check out our Amazon registry to help our CASA families get basic essentials for their babies! http://ow.ly/hlkj50KuEbh

A child with a CASA volunteer is more likely to have better outcomes: children performed better academically and behaviorally in school as measured by whether or not they passed all of their courses, whether or not they were expelled and their conduct performance.
