Voices for Children Riverside County

📣Please help us congratulate our CASA of the Month, Caleb! 👏

For 17-year-old Andy,* life in foster care has been marked by instability and the painful feeling of not truly belonging. Through every setback, CASA Caleb has remained a steady source of support, showing up with compassion, consistency, and strong advocacy.

After a very difficult year, that unwavering presence helped Andy take an important step forward.

We are beyond grateful to CVGivingDay, the RAP Foundation and NPO Centric, and all of the donors who made this day of giving so successful.

The $5,000 bonus prize was such a special surprise. 💙

We’re still reeling from crossing the $1 MILLION mark. 💜💚

For the first time in CV Giving Day history, our community raised more than $1,000,000 in a single day — and the celebration continues.

Today, we’re thrilled to announce the first group of organizations receiving $5,000 Bonus Prizes - congratulations to:

• About Families, Inc.
• Cathedral City Senior Center
• Coachella Valley Rescue Mission
• Desert Cancer Foundation
• Galilee Center
• 29PSP
• Jewish Family Service of the Desert
• Food Now
• United Cerebral Palsy of the Inland Empire
• Voices for Children

That’s $50,000 more going directly back into our community made possible by the incredible support of the RAP Foundation and NPO Centric.

To our nonprofits who rallied their supporters, to our donors who showed up in record numbers, and to our sponsors who make these incentive prizes so powerful — thank you.

We broke a million dollars for the first time ever.

And we’re not done celebrating yet.

More bonus prize announcements coming soon. 🎉

In just one week, our community will come together for CV Giving Day on Tuesday, March 3.

Our goal is to raise $2,500 to support children in foster care throughout Coachella Valley - youth who rely on the consistent advocacy from a Voices for Children Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA).

Join us in ensuring local children in foster care have a dedicated advocate in their corner.
