Dallas CASA relies on the generosity of our community to fund critical advocacy services for the children we serve who have been abused or neglected. In order to reach and sustain our goal to serve all children who come into protective year every year, we must grow our donor base and our future annual revenue sources to sustain the significant expansion of our program capacity.

Following are some of the ways that an individual can help a child who has been a victim of abuse.

The Annual Fund provides substantial support for Dallas CASA to serve abused and neglected children throughout the year. Your financial donation is a gift that offers hope and the chance of a much brighter future for the children we serve. Please complete our gift form to make your donation.

Donations of any amount provide needed services to support children who have been abused. Please complete our gift form to make your donation to make a difference in a child victim’s life.
