32nd Annual Children’s Champion Celebration Gala
Light Their Way
March 7, 2026 • The Q Center
What an unforgettable evening! The 32nd Annual Children’s Champion Celebration Gala was a powerful night of community, generosity, and hope. Because of the incredible support of our sponsors, donors, volunteers, and guests, we raised significant funds to ensure children in foster care have a dedicated CASA/GAL volunteer advocating for their best interests.
From the inspiring words of our speakers to the energy in the room during the paddle raise and auctions, the evening was a beautiful reminder of what is possible when a community comes together to stand up for children who need a voice.
Your generosity helps CASA Kane County recruit, train, and support volunteer advocates who walk alongside children navigating the foster care system—ensuring they are seen, heard, and supported every step of the way.
We are deeply grateful to everyone who joined us in lighting the way for children in foster care.

We hope you will join us again next year for another extraordinary evening.
