On April 25, 2015, the CASA programs of Marion, Harrison, Monongalia, and Preston Counties will again join forces to bring together a league of Superheroes for the 3rd Annual CASA Superhero 5K!

In 2014, participants and sponsors in the CASA Superhero 5K raised $14,000, benefitting hundreds of our most vulnerable in our community, our children.  We hope to surpass last year’s success and reach our goal of raising $22,000 for the CASA programs in North Central West Virginia.

Corporate sponsorship is vital to the success of the CASA Superhero 5K. Sponsors receive many benefits with their contributions on the day of the race some of which includes free advertisement, depending on which level of sponsorship they support.

We are need of Corporate Sponsorships!

The mission of CASA for Kids of Monongalia and Preston Couties is to ensure that every abused and neglected child, who is in the court system through no falut of their own, is placed in a safe, permanent home as quickly as possible. CASA’s or Court Appointed Advocates are volunteers who have a passion for children and desire to see that abused children have a voice in the legal system. These advocates are trained under National CASA for Kids Standards and receive continous training throughout the year.

CASA’s are sworn into the court system by a Circuit Court Judge in which they are bound to provide accurate and truthful information that is in the best interest of the children.

The goal of CASA for Kids of Monongalia and Preston Counties is to provide a CASA for every child who is placed under state care in Monongalia and Preston Counties.
