What they do
CASA/GAL VOLUNTEERS ARE APPOINTED BY JUDGES to ADVOCATE for CHILDRENS BEST INTERESTS. THEY STAY WITH EACH CASE UNTIL IT is CLOSED and THE CHILD is IN A SAFE, PERMANENT HOME. WE SERVE CHILDREN FROM BIRTH THROUGH THE AGE DEFINED BY STATE STATUTE AS THE LIMIT to YOUTH REMAINING IN CARE. OUR BEST-INTEREST ADVOCACY is DRIVEN BY THE GUIDING PRINCIPLE THAT CHILDREN GROW and DEVELOP BEST WITH THEIR FAMILY of ORIGIN, IF THAT CAN BE SAFELY ACHIEVED. MOST of THE CHILDREN WE WORK WITH ARE IN FOSTER CARE, BUT SOME ARE WITH THEIR FAMILY of ORIGIN. AND, MOST CHILDREN WHO LEAVE FOSTER CARE DO SO to RETURN to THEIR FAMILY.
Should I give to this charity?
Of every $100 spent, about $60.70 was reported for mission work. Use the spending picture below and ask what results that work produced.

Money made simple
Ask these three easy questions
- Who did you help? Ask for a recent story or report that shows real results.
- What will my money do? Ask exactly what your gift will pay for.
- Is this really the charity? Give only through its official website or confirmed phone number.
Bottom line: Do not decide from a name, mission statement, or tax status alone. Look at where the money went, then ask what changed, who was helped, and what your gift will do. YouCanGiveBack does not endorse or grade organizations.
Financial picture
A plain-language look at the latest Form 990 figures available. These numbers help you ask better questions; they do not, by themselves, rate whether a charity is good or bad.
How each $100 of revenue was used
The large number compares each expense with revenue. The smaller number shows its share of total expenses.
Gray means reported revenue left after expenses for this filing year. It does not necessarily mean cash sitting in a bank account.
Money in and money out
Reported spending amounts
Mission work means the Form 990 category called program services. These are reported accounting categories—not an independent measurement of results.
