Who We Are

For the past 25 years Guardians ad Litem in New Hanover and Pender Counties, with the support of CFGALA, the Guardian Ad Litem can turn needs and wishes into realities: the need for a tutor, the wish for a pair of soccer shoes, the longing to join a class field trip, and many others. Each Guardian ad Litem knows the unique needs of their child.

A group of Guardian ad Litem volunteers founded CFGALA in 1999 and have made sure that as the number of children has grown, the dollars have grown to make sure needs and wishes come true for each of them. Help us support educational goals and extracurricular activities that contribute to positive growth into adulthood. Help us make sure no child’s wish is ever turned down.

We are made up of and run entirely by a volunteer board with input from social workers, guardians ad litem and foster parents.

Board of Directors

Our Board of Directors is committed to ensuring that our Children enjoy childhood experiences that create lifelong memories, help develop unique talents and skills, and build the resilience our children will need to live productive and successful lives. The majority of Board members are active Guardians ad Litem.
