The Voice Board President is a pretty amazing lady! Becky Gareis gives with all her heart and time to everyone.

When we talk about “Those Who Serve,” Becky Gareis comes to mind.

At Light the Night, we recognized Becky as our Pulaski County Advocate of the Year and presented her with the Heart of CASA Award, sponsored by Ed Morse Ford.

Since becoming a CASA volunteer in 2021, Becky has advocated for 12 children across four cases. Twelve kiddos who have had her in their corner.

Her service reaches well beyond CASA. She volunteers with several local nonprofits, with one thing in common: advocating for those who are not able to advocate for themselves. She’s someone we know we can call, and she’ll be there.

Becky, you are the real deal. Thank you for your heart, your commitment and all the ways you keep showing up. We are so lucky to have you as part of CASA!

Please join us in congratulating Becky!

• Riverbend Accounting - Margie Grife, CPA – Table Accent Sponsor

Your generosity is helping create opportunities, promote inclusion, and strengthen supports for people with developmental disabilities right here in Pulaski County.

While our top sponsorship level has already been claimed, there are still sponsorship opportunities available for businesses, organizations, and individuals who want to make a difference. By becoming a sponsor, you're not just supporting an event. You're investing in your neighbors, friends, coworkers, and community members.

The Winter Ball is a night of celebration, connection, and community, and we would love for you to be part of it. Every sponsorship helps us continue our mission of creating opportunities and improving the lives of people with developmental disabilities.

A stronger community is one where all people are welcomed, respected, and included. Disability rights are human rights, and belonging starts with treating every person with the same dignity and respect.
