This Year's Charity Partner: CASA of River Valley
We are proud to announce that this year's 5K will benefit CASA of River Valley (Court Appointed Special Advocates), an organization dedicated to giving a voice to children who have been removed from their homes due to abuse or neglect.
Since 1994, CASA of River Valley has been a beacon of hope for children in Will and Grundy Counties. As the only local organization that recruits, trains, and supports community volunteers to advocate for these vulnerable children, CASA works to ensure every child's best interests are represented throughout the court process. Their goal is simple but powerful: no child should have to navigate the system without a dedicated advocate or Guardian ad Litem.
On average, it costs $1,000 to provide one child with a trained volunteer advocate for an entire year. Your participation in our 5K helps make that possible.
Please consider making a donation or registering for the race when registration opens on August 1st. Together, we can help CASA of River Valley continue to be the voice and hope these children deserve.
