New Charity Campaign Inaugurated by Laura Stephens Agency in Cumming, GA Raises Funds to Help At-Risk Children Through Court Appointed Special Advocates
Cumming, GA (PRWEB) December 14, 2015 -- A full service insurance provider serving north Georgia families from offices in Cumming, GA, Laura Stephens Agency celebrates the beginning of a new charity campaign. As part of its ongoing community involvement program, the agency is now raising funds to assist Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA). In the belief that children deserve a voice, and in the spirit of neighbors helping neighbors in times of crisis, the agency hopes that compassionate donors will support a new beginning for the area’s at-risk children by contributing through the designated donations page at http://secure.iescentral.com/casa_forsyth/.
CASA is a nonprofit organization which is focused on supporting children’s right to be safe, to be treated with dignity and respect and to learn to grow in the embrace of a loving family. Working with the severely over-burdened juvenile justice and foster care systems, CASA supports affiliate programs across the state which recruit, screen, train and supervise compassionate, qualified volunteers to speak on behalf of children involved in court proceedings. Appointed by a judge to look after the best interests of abused and neglected children, the CASA community volunteers serve as the eyes and ears of the court.
Forty-seven CASA programs currently operate independently, but with mutual accountability, in Georgia, resulting in the highest level of advocacy for all of the state’s dependent children. Their goal is to provide a CASA volunteer for every child who cannot live safely at home – an advocate who will work to ensure a permanent, safe, loving home and a brighter future.
“We are truly touched by CASA’s remarkable mission to help children,” attested Laura Stephens, owner of the Laura Stephens Agency. “What could be a more worthy goal for the future of our community than providing for the safety of our children? In this season of giving, we hope our neighbors will dig deep to help give a voice to the most vulnerable members of our community.”
Laura Stephens Agency has set a goal of $500, and it invites the agency’s network of customers, business partners, friends, family and neighbors to actively participate not only contributing financially, but also by helping spread the word to others in their own circles of influence. The agency’s team is hard at work promoting the campaign for CASA through social media channels, email and text message communications, as well as through their monthly magazine, which is delivered to thousands of households in the greater Cumming/north Atlanta area. Our Hometown magazine reserves a full page to spotlight the campaign and features all the pertinent details. The electronic Flipbook version of the current issue may be accessed here: http://www.laurastephensagency.com/Our-Hometown-Magazine_41.
The donations page at http://secure.iescentral.com/casa_forsyth/ is currently active for anyone who wishes to contribute to this worthy cause. Laura Stephens Agency will acknowledge all of those who donate a minimum of $5 in their monthly magazine, and the agency itself has pledged to donate $10 to CASA for every referral they receive for an insurance quote, with no purchase necessary.
Laura Stephens Agency will continue to work with individuals and nonprofits in the area every 60-90 days to identify new worthwhile opportunities to support and enrich the community. Concerned residents are invited to visit the agency’s website to submit information on groups, families or individuals to be considered for future campaigns at: http://www.laurastephensagency.com/Add-Community-Cause_48. Entries are diligently reviewed, and the selected worthy causes contacted by a representative of Laura Stephens Agency’s Community Program.
