Tiffany Guy
This month we would like to introduce our community to one of our newer CASA Volunteers, Tiffany Guy. Tiffany swore in approximately six months ago and has been advocating for two children in her current case. Tiffany attributes her interest in CASA to her aunt Celeste, who was a CASA when Tiffany was just a teenager. She then connected with Sulma, our Training/Outreach Coordinator, at our outreach booth during Southdown Market Place. Tiffany is the mother of one daughter Paislynn Rose and two doggies, Stella and Addie. Tiffany was born and raised in Montegut and is a South Terrebonne High School graduate. She currently resides in Thibodaux but works in Houma. In her professional life, she is the Human Resource Position Control Specialist for Terrebonne Parish School District’s central office. In her spare time, she enjoys shopping, learning, fishing, traveling, camping, cooking, and enjoying time with friends and family. Something that is unusual about Tiffany is that even though she is 29 years old, she cannot whistle! Tiffany stated, “You don’t have to be wealthy to give back to your community. Meaningful time with others is more expensive than money.” What a true statement! Time is the most valuable thing that we have in our possession. How do you spend your extra time? Tiffany chooses CASA because of her love and compassion for children. She also recognized the tremendous needs of our community. She also stated, “Dogs at the shelter get more attention and publicity than our own human babies and I wanted to do my part at shining light into a child’s life so they know that their story is heard and they are cared for.”
We are looking for everyday citizens to shine a light in a child’s direction, give them a voice and help them in their time of need. We each have a part to play so that the load isn’t so heavy to carry.
