I am excited to invite you to join us as a valued contributor at CASA of Los Angeles’s 7^th Annual Evening to Foster Dreams Gala with a product or experience donation to be offered in our silent auction. Our extraordinary event will take place on April 24^th, 2019 at the Beverly Hilton Hotel. Last year we had just over 700 influential guests in attendance, all dedicated to supporting children in LA County’s child welfare system who have experienced abuse or neglect.

We would be thrilled if you would consider donating an item or package to our silent auction. This is a special opportunity to showcase the most exclusive aspects of your brand to our partners and donor base. Any item, experience, or certificate you are able to contribute will make an extraordinary difference.

CASA/LA is a nonprofit organization that recruits, trains and supports Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) volunteers who are paired to work one-on-one with a child to advocate for their best interest. Last year’s auction raised over $1 million and allowed us to achieve:

• 1,124 unique children served
• 931 CASA volunteers appointed to a case
• 115,000 hours of advocacy
• 57% of children moved from non-permanent to permanent placement
• 66% improved safety outcomes

We are focused on exceeding last year’s impact by raising $1.2 million, which would provide us with enough resources to serve 280 children in one night of powerful philanthropy alone.

We are aware that you receive many requests for donations and sincerely hope you will consider partnering with CASA/LA. Help us reach even more children this year as we expand our resources to recruit, train, and support to even more CASA volunteers. Please do not hesitate to contact me at klozo@casala.org or 323.859.2888 ext. 6353 if you have any questions or need additional information.

Thank you for your kind consideration!
