Chicks For Charity of Southern Delaware

Welcome! Our group is dedicated to assisting those less fortunate. Established in Lewes, Delaware, we’ve aided the residents of Sussex County beginning with our first "Chicks For Charity" Dinner in July 2010. Many of the charitable organizations we have helped are essential community resource agencies that aid kids, families, the elderly, abandoned animals, and those that are underserved and in need. We are using your donations to change the lives of many!

Delaware's Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA)

Across Delaware, over 200 volunteer Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASAs) build close relationships with and serve as one-on-one advocates for children in foster care. The CASA program recruits and specially trains these volunteers from the community, who are then appointed as advocates by a Family Court Judge. The CASA is appointed to work in conjunction with the child's attorney to represent the child's best interests.

. CASA volunteers commit to spending at least one year: 1. establishing a strong, stable connection with assigned child(ren), 2. gathering information and making recommendations to the court about the child's best interest, and 3. advocating to make sure the child receives needed services.

Too often, a CASA volunteer is the only consistent adult in the life of the child. Children with a CASA benefit in countless ways. They are more likely to be placed in a safe, permanent home; more likely to receive better services; and more likely to have fewer placement changes. Volunteers stay with each case until it is closed and the child is placed in a

safe, permanent home.
