Chi, chi, Ching- The stage was set and JACKPOT! On Saturday, April 20, 2013 the Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) program of Montgomery County, Maryland hosted its third annual Casino Night fundraiser at The Universities at Shady Grove.
The joyful night included a full spread of delectable hors d’oeuvres, decadent desserts, and drinks. At 8pm, the Casino Night themed fundraiser was in full throttle. CASA’s largest fundraiser of the year attracted 175 guests, which included local dignitaries, government leaders, the business community, many concerned family and friends, but most importantly the CASA volunteers that serve as the “eyes and ears” of the court and chief advocates for the children in which they represent.
The event also included a silent auction where guests took the opportunity to bid on a wide variety of items, such as local experience packages, nights on the town, wine baskets, jewelry, sports memorabilia, travel, and much more. All auction items where generously donated to the CASA organization by local large and small organizations, individual sponsors, and those interested in saving the lives of our youth.
During a brief intermission, attention focused to the center stage as Barbara Harrison of NBC4 news presented the Barbara Harrison Child Advocacy award, named in her honor, to Judge Katherine D. Savage. The award recognizes individuals who make a difference in the lives of children in need and exudes exemplary leadership in child advocacy. Judge Savage represents the caliber of individual commitment to child services that this esteemed award commands.
This year’s third annual Casino Night raised over $40,000. The funds raised through this event will support CASA of Montgomery Co. in training more volunteers to support additional children in need.
CASA of Montgomery County would like to thank its hardworking staff, volunteers, and the amazing children and families that welcome our support. To all those that supported our Casino Night, thank you for your generous support of our fundraising efforts. We hope to see you again next year and feel free to visit our CASA website for more information about our programs, to learn the process of becoming a CASA yourself, and to donate funds in support of our mission and the children of Montgomery Co. | |
