OUR MISSION:
To improve the lives of the abused and neglected children in Lincoln County, NC.
Who We Are & What We Do:
We are a group of community volunteers serving Speak Up For Children, Inc. We are a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization registered in North Carolina. We raise funds and solicit in-kind donations to provide for the unmet needs of abused and neglected children in Lincoln County, and we support the Guardian ad Litem program by assisting in volunteer recruitment and education.
Why We Are Here & Who We Serve:
Each year dozens of Lincoln County’s children are removed from their homes and placed under DSS custody as the result of abuse or neglect. Each child is assigned a volunteer advocate called a Guardian ad Litem (GAL). These children often have many unmet needs, such as clothes, shoes and help with school related activities. We help to provide hope and a sense of normalcy in their disrupted lives.
