A new program in Christian County is supporting children in the court system and is asking for the public’s support at a 5k Super Hero run fundraiser on April 13.
Court Appointed Special Advocates—or CASA—Executive Director Virginia Erxleben appeared on WHOP recently and says the run or walk will start at 8 a.m. at Founder’s Square in downtown Hopkinsville and although advanced registration has already ended, same day registration will start at 7 a.m.
She says money raised goes to benefit the program and from there the children they will help and advocate for through the court system until they are in a healthy, permanent home.
The route of the event will follow the Greenway System and for more information, or to volunteer to serve as a CASA advocate, call Exleben at 270-887-4024.
