CASA to hold Q&A about volunteering

When she retired from FedEx five years ago, Lynda Owens wanted to volunteer to help either children or pets. She learned that stray animals have twice as many donations and support as disadvantaged children.

So with characteristic energy, she dove into helping children with the Golden Crescent CASA and never looked back. As a Court Appointed Special Advocate of a child in foster care, she’s all in.

“When I take a case, they are my child,” Owens said. “There’s nothing like a little one running down the hallway, calling your name and hugging you. It just melts your heart.”
