Cheers to Volunteers! Steve Denny

Steve Denny is a wonderful volunteer for Jackson County CASA. He visits the children and is a great resource for many older youth. Steve also helps with and attends the events for CASA volunteers. Elizabeth Lee, Jackson County CASA; said, “Steve is always willing to teach, mentor, and give lessons to older youth on changing tires, mounting televisions, and other projects. He is kind, understanding, and intuitive… Steve can tell when a youth needs a helping hand or a gentle push in the right direction.” Thank you, Steve, for lending your time and talents to Jackson County CASA.
