3/20/05 Update: Sincere thanks to everyone who made the 2005 Hearts for Children event (held March 19th) a wonderful success! It was a fabulous Mardi-Gras celebration of food, music, dancing, and a lively auction, all in support of CASA and the children we serve. We heard heartwarming speeches by honorees George C. Forrester and Katherine Kennedy, Executive Director Millie Gilson, President of the Board Susan Gorin and Event Chair Rickee Raney, CASA Jan Postma, as well as from two CASA graduates.
