Description

The Greenville Chamber of Commerce in Greenville, Texas will host our Annual Auction & Casino Night  on July 15,2023.   A portion of this year’s money will be going to one of our 501(c)(3) Members. All of our Member non-profits will have an opportunity to fill out an application to apply for the money.  The winning Non-Profit of the Year will be announced at our December Quarterly Membership Luncheon.  Please consider making a donation from your business with items that can be auctioned off at the event.

 

We are proud to announce our selection of CASA for Hunt County as the winner of our Non-Profit of the Year for 2022.  CASA exists to promote and protect the best interest of children who have been abused and neglected.  Our grant award helped with providing tools for the Collaborative Family Engagement (CFE) Program for 40 children.  This is a Texas CASA initiative program with proven methods of finding ways to avoid removing children from their family of origin whenever possible, and to help children achieve strong connectivity and permanency faster, preferably with relatives or other trusted loved ones.  This program helps ensure that every child in foster care has the opportunity for lifelong family connections. These CFE tools included developed workbooks, color copies of CFE information and color copying, snacks, tissues, craft paper, markers, crayons, large post-it pads and notebooks.
