CASA of Kent County is excited and honored to receive the Emerging Leaders United (ELU) microgrant from the Heart of West Michigan United Way. Thanks to the ELU fund, CASA received $3,000 to support our program’s growth to serve 20 additional children this fiscal year.
On May 16, CASA’s executive director, Stephanie, and development coordinator, Sam, attended a Coffee in the Community event hosted by the ELU committee. They were able to network with other attendees, share about CASA’s mission of advocacy, and learn more about the other grant recipient ImmiGreatness.
We are so grateful for this opportunity, not only to fund our mission, but to connect with this group of local professionals committed to empowering youth in our community and investing in a more equitable West Michigan.
