This holiday season, you can make sure children in the Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) program—kids who have faced abuse, neglect, and uncertainty—feel the love, warmth, and joy that every child deserves. When you sponsor a child, you’re helping make their Christmas morning sparkle with hope and reminding them that they are seen, loved, and never forgotten.

There are great shows coming to the Strand Theatre in November and December! Make sure to check out their calendar of events.

Calling all organizations, clubs, groups, and individuals! Want to make a difference one stocking at a time, we can get you connected! Shelby County Active Aging Coalition is grateful for the opportunity to provide holiday cheer to seniors in the community. However, they could not do this without invested organizations, businesses, groups and individuals that support this program. Please reach out if you want to be involved again this year or if you never have we would love to talk with you about our Senior Stocking Project. The joy we bring to older adults during the holiday season is a blessing! Contact Buffy Powers at 765-516-0380 for more details.
