Each month, CASA of East Tennessee shines a spotlight on a particular volunteer who has gone above and beyond in their service of Knox County children. This month, we would like to offer a round of applause to Jeanie Gee!
We asked Jeanie what attracted her to the CASA program and what she enjoys about her role as an advocate:
"There are so many things happening today with the children. My desire is to make a difference in one child's life. To keep them from harm in any way possible. Being a CASA volunteer has been a eye opening experience. Sometimes it can be a cut and dry case. But, sometimes it can be more than you expected or experienced. I learn something new in each case. I love seeing and spending time with the kids. They are all so special and unique, as unique as their case."
Jeanie has lived in Knoxville 23 years and is retired. In her spare time she enjoys fishing, swimming boating, and travel. She also enjoys reading and attending church.
Thank you for your service Jeanie!
