Following his retirement, he felt like something was missing. Dennis states, “I wanted and personally needed to do some good outside of myself. I have a cousin who is a CASA Volunteer in Seattle, WA. She told me about what she did as a volunteer, and I immediately thought that it would be an opportunity to do some good.” Prior to becoming an advocate, Dennis became a member of Krewe CASA to lend support in that way.
“What does being a CASA Volunteer mean to me? Children, as a group, are our most valuable asset. Each individual child is so important; within him or her is the potential for greatness, success, happiness,” explains Dennis. Being a CASA Volunteer, Dennis hopes to make a difference for children so they can emerge from the life situation they are in, and become great, successful and happy.
