New Winter Wear
Help CASA kids stay warm & cozy with a winter wear drive or individual donation! We will accept new coats, jackets, gloves, & other winter wear items ranging from 0-3M to XXL sizes for infants to young adults!
New Books
From board books for our youngest kids to graphic novels and chapter books for adolescents and teens in our care, help us give the gift of knowledge and adventure this holiday season.
Gift Cards - Teens
Gift cards of $25 – $50 to Uber, Amazon, Target, Walmart, or Visa will help our teens greatly. Living in independent care or attending college, they need help getting around and purchasing necessities.
Gift Cards - Kids
Gift Cards of just $5, $10, or $15 to Target, Walmart, or Visa will help our younger kids in care build ownership and independence. Help kids in care gain financial literacy while treating themselves!
Other Items
Throughout the year, we collect items for birthday baskets, infant care, and craft & learning activities. Contact info@lonestarcasa.org to learn what we may need the most regarding these categories.
Support Our Advocates
Donate a variety of items that our volunteers and staff may use as they help a child in protective care. We happily accept gasoline cards to visit kids placed in facilities across Texas. Also, we can use gift certificates to restaurants, movies, or sporting events during visits with children.
Donate Through Amazon Wishlist
Help our CASA kids celebrate milestones, such as birthdays, graduations, holidays, adoptions and reunifications by providing gifts with Amazon Wishlist! This way, you can purchase specific items that we need. View our Wishlist here.

Donate With Stocks
Donate long-term appreciated securities, including stock, bonds, and mutual funds. Compared with donating cash or selling your appreciated securities and contributing the after-tax proceeds, you can automatically increase your gift and your tax deduction.

Many companies will match gifts to Lone Star CASA with additional funds. Some even match volunteer hours and in-kind donations. Find out if your employer has a matching gift program. Each company has its own guidelines, but many will match gifts annually. Please contact your employer’s HR department for more information.
