CASA - https://www.thecasaproject.org/

CASA Project Worcester County recruits, screens, and trains community volunteers to be appointed advocates for children that have been abused and neglected in Worcester County!

Investigate and fact-find, helping a judge learn the nuances of each child’s prospective caregiver situations.

Advocate for any medical, mental health, and educational services that a child may need while in foster care.

Monitor case progress and well-being of the child to aid in obtaining a safe and permanent home as quickly as possible.

If volunteering is too big an ask, they regularly have toy drives or collections for things to help out the kids they advocate for! Currently they have a holiday drive: https://www.amazon.com/registries/custom/owner-view?registryId=TSE0OW2Z61SZ&ref_=gr_universal_landing
