CASA Welcomes Two New Staff Members

Karen Kay, CASA Kane County's new Director of Advancement, joined our staff in January.  Karen has 18 years of experience in fundraising, nonprofit administration and volunteer management.  She began her career with Marklund Children's Home and later worked for Alexian Brothers Medical Center, the American Cancer Society,  Advocate Charitable Foundation, and the Elgin Symphony Orchestra. 

Jen Seppi joined our development team in April.  As the Development & Stewardship Coordinator, Jen will be instrumental in the management of our special events, outreach activities, and acknowledgement processes.  Jen worked for several years in the insurance industry.  In 2007, Jen joined the Provena Mercy Medical Center Women's Auxiliary to assist the Foundation with planning their fundraising events.  Last year, Jen served as Chair of the annual Mercy Ball.
