ONU Kappa Alpha Theta members are encouraging university students to attend a nacho/quesadilla meal Wednesday to raise funds for CASA, the sorority’s national philanthropy.
CASA stands for Court Appointed Special Advocates, a national organization of volunteers that judges appoint to speak for the safety and well being of abused and neglected children.
Children with a CASA volunteer are half as likely to spend time in long-term foster care, defined as more than 3 years in care.
