A CASA volunteer is appointed by a Chatham County Juvenile Court Judge to watch over and advocate for abused and neglected children, to make sure they don’t get lost in the overburdened legal and social service system or languish in an inappropriate group or foster home. They stay with each case until it is closed and the child is placed in a safe, permanent home. For many abused children, their CASA volunteer will be the one constant adult presence.

Because children are often unable to provide a voice for themselves during this critical and difficult time of their life, a CASA volunteer makes it possible to be their voice by advocating on their behalf.

Savannah CASA is always recruiting volunteers to serve as CASAs

The Emmaus House Clothing Closet is located on the 3rd floor of Christ Church Episcopal. Every Wednesday at 10am we distribute gently used clothing to our clients- individuals who are unsheltered and experiencing homelessness. We receive donations of casual clothing from the community, and these clothes are sorted by community members every Tuesday morning from 9:30am until around 11:30am

Our clothing closet needs quite a bit of TLC. We have bags and bags of unsorted clothing that has accumulated, and we need your help to sort and organize it all so that our Wednesday team can distribute.

If you are interested in advocating for Mental Health within your community, then hosting a clothing drive is a great way to give back (without having to jump through all those paperwork hoops!).

GRHS has a population of 85% male and 15% female patient population, and we are consistently in need of adult clothing. The hospital provides basic items, but our patients feel more comfortable in jeans, sneakers, jackets, etc of their own. These items can be brand new or gently used. We are usually in need of male clothing the most, as well as shoes or jackets. As the seasons change so does the need. For example: October we need coats, April we need shorts.

Please contact me via email if you are interested in hosting a clothing drive to gather items to meet the needs within your community. Any items we cannot, or are considered contraband for our patients, are donated to other local organizations (so no donation is wasted or thrown away!).

We do NOT accept - baby/children's clothing, underwear, socks, ties, belts, watches, miniskirts, bathing suits, flip flops.
