Chattahoochee CASA - Red Shoe Party
The Red Shoe Party is a fundraising event themed around Dorothy’s ruby red slippers in the Wizard of Oz emphasizing the slogan, “There’s No Place like Home.” As children are removed from their homes due to abuse or neglect, it is CASA’s mission to help them reach permanency in a safe, stable home as quickly as possible.
This event is designed to be a party with a purpose helping to raise money and awareness for Chattahoochee CASA so that our community volunteers have the training and support to continue advocating for our most vulnerable citizens. All proceeds benefit Twin Cedars Youth and Family Services, Inc. Court Appointed Special Advocates or CASA.
Please help us reach more children by making a gift today. Together, we can help a child thrive. See you there!
