Community invited to share positive messages at future CASA office site
The community is invited to take part in a special event this weekend to support CASA for Hunt County, an organization dedicated to advocating for children in foster care. The public is encouraged to visit the future site of the organization's permanent home to write blessings, hopes or kind thoughts on the building's wooden framework before the walls go up. The event will take place on Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon and again on Sunday from noon to 2 p.m. at 2701 Washington St. in Greenville. Attendees can bring a favorite pen or marker to leave a message, though supplies will also be available on site. Messages can include prayers, quotes or any words of encouragement for CASA staff, board members, volunteer advocates and the children they serve. CASA volunteers work to ensure children in foster care find safe, permanent homes. The new office space will help the nonprofit continue and expand its mission in Hunt County. For more information, email casa@
