“The shared mission of IndyStar’s Our Children initiative and annual Season for Sharing campaign is to harness the power of journalism to make a difference in the lives of Central Indiana youth. Once again, the Nina Mason Pulliam Charitable Trust will match your gift dollar-for-dollar. And because IndyStar covers all fundraising and administrative costs, 100% of your gift will go directly to Central Indiana agencies. If you prefer to send a check, please mail it to:

Become a CASA Today! The Role of a CASA:
“Our volunteers, who are appointed by the Marion County Superior Court, visit with the child, contact caseworkers, interview parents, look out for medical and educational needs and provide the court with information to help the judge make an informed decision as to what is in the child’s best interest. Volunteers with Child Advocates ensure each child is placed in a safe, permanent home as soon as possible and that they don’t fall through the cracks of an overburdened system.”
