Norma's Big Give Challenge: 23 Years of Impact

For the past 23 years, I have had the privilege of serving CASA of Central Texas and witnessing firsthand the extraordinary impact that dedicated advocates can have on the lives of children who have experienced abuse and neglect.

Over the years, I have seen children find safety, stability, healing, and hope because someone chose to stand beside them during one of the most difficult chapters of their lives. I have also seen the incredible commitment of CASA volunteers who step forward to ensure that every child's voice is heard and every child's best interests remain at the center of important decisions affecting their future.

While much has changed over the last two decades, one thing has remained constant: the need for caring individuals and strong community support to advocate for children in foster care.

Today, I am asking for your support through The Big Give 2026.

Your gift helps CASA of Central Texas:

• Recruit and train volunteer advocates
• Support children and families navigating the child welfare system
• Provide ongoing resources and education for CASA volunteers
• Ensure more children have a consistent, caring adult advocating solely for their best interests

After 23 years with CASA, I continue to believe that every child deserves to be safe, heard, and given the opportunity to thrive. The work we do is only possible because of compassionate supporters like you who invest in the well-being of children in our communities.

I invite you to join me in helping CASA continue this important mission. Together, we can ensure more children have a voice, a champion, and hope for a brighter future.

Thank you for your generosity and for standing with CASA of Central Texas.

With gratitude,
