Every child needs a hero, but abused children need Superheroes! Approximately 3 million reports of child abuse are made each year. Of these reported cases, approximately 1500 result in fatalities – that’s 4 children that die each day as a result of child abuse. Join CASA at the Philadelphia Zoo as we raise awareness about child abuse. By supporting the Superhero 5K, you are helping to raise the awareness needed to break the cycle. Pre-sale Tickets: $30/adult (18 and older), $20/child (5-17), children 4 and under free. Stay tuned for information about purchasing tickets! SUPERHERO SPONSORS NEEDED!

Volunteer - Philadelphia | More about Volunteering
There are over 4,200 foster children in Philadelphia. CASA volunteers visit children regularly, contact caseworkers, interview parents, doctors, teachers and therapists. They review records, report to the court and testify - all to ensure necessary safety, care and most importantly permanence for the children.
