CASA of Hidalgo County works toward helping kids in a tough situation.

Many children have been removed from their homes and CASA serves as their advocate in court, giving these kids a voice.

CASA of Hidalgo County Executive Director Veronica Whitacre sits down with Channel 5 News' Dina Herrera Garza to give details on an upcoming fundraiser, CASA Casino Corral, which is scheduled for August 10 at St. Michael's Event Center in Edinburg.
