Summer Camp Fun and Memories

This summer, 9 CASA children had the wonderful opportunity to experience the joys of camp! Through a partnership with the Catholic Diocese of Green Bay, who are generously supported by the Cornerstone Foundation of Northeastern Wisconsin and others, our CASA kids had fun and created memories at Camp Tekakwitha!



CASA volunteers encourage their CASA children and youth to attend camp by inviting them to ask questions about it, highlighting the activities, and providing necessary supplies in a camp backpack.

One of the highlights of camp this summer, as shared by Charlie*, was an activity called “The Life Cycle of a Watermelon." Charlie shared, “We talked about watermelons, drew on them, played catch with them, and then got to eat any pieces that didn’t hit the ground!”

The impact of the camp experience will surely remain in the hearts of these children for many years to come. Thank you, Camp Tekakwitha, for making a difference and helping to create cherished memories for our CASA children!

Welcome NEW CASA Volunteers!

New CASA volunteers who completed pre-service training this summer were officially sworn in on August 14 by The Honorable Judge John P. Zakowski! We are excited to welcome our new CASA volunteers and are grateful for their dedication and commitment to help change a child's story. CASA volunteers make our mission possible!

A Year of Compassion

For the last year, Tammy has been a CASA volunteer for four children and supported the family as they began the reunification process with their mother. Tammy describes her role as someone who supports not only the children but their mom. Tammy encouraged their mom to take part in her visits and spent time encouraging her.

Tammy's visits often included a project whether it was making pizza or making arts and crafts! One of Tammy's favorite memories was making pizza with the family. When they began, all of the kids were fighting but then closer to the end they began sharing. Tammy says she saw that they could work together, and the kids saw that they can be friends.

Tammy describes her volunteering as rewarding. She states, "Just being there, it feels good for the child to be recognized, the child can count on me, feel safe and I gave them a sense of hope."

Thank you, Tammy, for your dedication and selflessness. Because of you, we are reminded of the profound influence one caring adult can have in the lives of children.
