The program was named in honor of long-time CASA volunteer, Dick Milton. MFCF funding helps youth in foster care where there are gaps in available funding. Requests fall into three categories: 1. Educational: tutoring, school trips, graduation items, instruments, etc. 2. Skills and social: lessons, fees, or supplies for classes or hobbies, day or overnight camps, etc. 3. Health: items not covered or fully covered by insurance such as dental procedures, sensory or therapeutic items. Youth ages 0-18 living in out-of-home placement (or one funded request if living with biological parent(s)) and currently placed through El Paso or Teller County with an open dependency and neglect case are eligible for funding. Funding application guidelines: Youth can receive funds totaling no more than $250 per CASA's fiscal year (July 1June 30). This amount can be the full amount or multiple requests not exceeding $250. Youth who live with a biological parent may have one request funded per the guidelines above. Applications may be filled out by anyone CASA, guardians, caseworkers, the youth themselves, etc. No funds will be given without a completed and approved MFCF application. The only exception to this rule and an application must be submitted and approved before a reimbursement is made is if the payment must be paid with the registration, for example paying the deposit on a summer camp. Checks must be made out to the vendor providing services (e.g., the dance studio) and will not be made out to the guardian or CASA. Checks will then be mailed to the placement's home address. Items that may only be purchased online with a credit card (e.g., therapeutic items on Amazon) will be paid for by CASA and shipped directly to the placement's home address. Applications are reviewed every Friday at noon in order to request and mail checks out the following week. The requestor should receive a status email by end of day on Friday of the week they applied.
