Volunteers Make Special Events Happen Daily!

Nearly daily, our CASA volunteers meet with vulnerable children in Sarpy County, Nebraska. It is truly special that these trained adults invest their time and talents to advocate for children in foster care. We help many but we need more volunteers. Will you join us?

Starting a new school year can be daunting for any child, but for children in foster care, it can be especially overwhelming.

While many classmates arrive with their parents, snapping first-day photos, carrying carefully chosen school supplies, and buzzing with a mix of excitement and nerves, the experience often looks very different for a foster child. Their photos may be taken by someone they’ve just met, their supplies might come from the school or donations, and they may be starting fresh in a new school where they don’t know a single face. Nothing feels “normal.”

From this viewpoint, something as simple as a new pair of shoes can make such a meaningful difference. For a young child, they bring a burst of joy and the belief that they can run faster and do more. For a teen, the right shoes help them fit in, giving them confidence without standing out for the wrong reasons. For foster youth, new shoes offer more than comfort or style – they provide a sense of belonging, dignity, and the normalcy every child deserves.
