June 26th Garden Party

Contributed by: Ferlie Yruma

CASA of Washtenaw County extends a big THANK-YOU to Jan L., Anne S., and Knut S., who hosted a garden party at Jan’s home in Dexter. Jan donated a party to an American Red Cross auction, Anne and Knut bought it, and they turned it into a CASA fundraiser.

The garden was gorgeous and the friends were fabulous! Thanks for helping two local nonprofits!
