Hi! My name is Alex Fandrich. I joined CASA this year and am currently serving on my first case. Since becoming a CASA Volunteer there have been so many great moments.

Since becoming a CASA, Kathleen has learned so much more than she expected. “I learned how resilient kids can be. They have been through so much and yet they still want to focus on school, focus on their future.”

“I really appreciate the opportunity to be a part of this organization. It really means a lot to me.”

Anne Usman knew that in her free time, she wanted to do something big. She wanted to do something worthwhile. She wanted to make a difference in her community.

John Osmundson was sworn in on October 6th, 2021 and has worked on one case continuously since. His continued hard work for CASA has not gone unnoticed and that is why he was nominated as the Volunteer of the Month for August!

Jan was sworn-in as a CASA Volunteer a little over five years ago and since then has worked on three different cases. While every case has had its ups and downs, it’s the special moments in between that remind her of why she’s here in the first place.

Morgan Ernzen’s journey to CASA started off in Kansas, working as a Case Manager.
