APRIL IS.................NATIONAL VOLUNTEER MONTH.
CASI's Vision Statement is "making a difference in someone's life with every pot of chili cooked." Sometimes the difference is a drop in the bucket. Other times it creates a tidal wave of change.
CASI's backbone is the many volunteers that comprise our charitable organization.
Volunteers come in all shapes and sizes:
From the volunteers who donate their resources, to those whose efforts are a large part of this national organization, their volunteerism provide valuable support to allow our charitable monies to help communities in times of need.
HOW TO OBSERVE NATIONAL VOLUNTEER MONTH
First of all......Thank a Volunteer! Next........Volunteer!
Many volunteers will tell you it is a rewarding experience. You don’t have to have a ton of time. Do you have a special talent or skill that may benefit a charity or the CASI organization? Offer your services or ask how you can be of help. Talk to one of our Directors or one of our Great Peppers.
Just take one step forward and volunteer.

Our CASI members and friends raise funds for charities throughout the year by competing in sanctioned CASI chili cookoffs.
Each year, CASI sanctions nearly 400 domestic and international chili cookoffs as qualifying events for the CASI Terlingua International Chili Championship©, known as TICC. CASI was the original organizer of the first chili championship in Terlingua in 1967. These sanctioned events raise approximately $1,000,000 annually for the local and national charities that work with the cookoff organizers. This ultimate chili championship is held the first Saturday of November annually at Rancho CASI de los Chisos near Terlingua, Texas. The CASI Championship event is a fundraiser for local Terlingua charities and organizations and funds CASI's scholarship programs.
