Meet Our CASA Volunteer: Leslie Caves
Leslie discusses below reasons for becoming a CASA Volunteer and what motivates her as a CASA Volunteer.
1) Why did you decide to become a CASA? I actually had a calling on my heart for a long time to become a CASA and I finally made up my mind to take the step of becoming a CASA.
2) What do you like best about being a CASA? Meeting new people and helping people that are in need.
3) How many CASA cases have you had? Three
4) Tell us one of your most meaningful experiences as a CASA? I was able to take one of my female CASA kids to the Nutcracker in Greeley. It was a struggle to get her there, but she loves dance and I wanted to show her with a lot of hard work, both at school and at dance class that it was possible to dance in a production like that. There are always dreams and ways to make things possible.
5) What has being a CASA taught you? Empathy, grace, understanding, learning not to judge, humility, seeing that I am very blessed.
6) What keeps you motivated as a CASA? I know I can make a positive difference in a child’s life even if it is for a small period of time. It is my way of giving back and also learning about myself in my life journey.
