Match with a Family in Need
Every year, CASA of Jefferson & Gilpin Counties partners with the Children, Youth, Families and Adult Protection Program through the Jefferson County Department of Human Services, to match community donors with families in need. The holidays can be especially tough on children and families who are navigating the court system.
In 2024, with the help of 150+ generous donors, we raised over $85,000 to support 410 families! The generosity of these donors is essential in supporting children and families in need for during the holiday season.
If you are interested in supporting this program, you can sign up to be a donor and be matched with a child/family! We can also take general donations (fiscal or physical) that can be used for families who do not get matched.
