Budget Blinds Of Omaha Central Supports CASA
Budget Blinds Of Omaha Central has supported CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates for Children) for the past 10 years. Since doing a solo benefit climb of Mt Kilimanjaro for the organization in 2010, John Mackenzie, owner of Budget Blinds of Omaha & Lincoln, organized a 5.8K Run to Benefit CASA (5.8K - the height of Kilimanjaro) to further raise awareness and money for CASA.
Volunteer Day!
The Budget Blinds of Omaha and Lincoln ownership group and the Director of Installations upgraded the aging and tattered blinds at Sacred Heart School Omaha in North Omaha. They provided 60+ brand-new beautiful roller shades.
Least of My Brethren
Budget Blinds of Omaha donated two heaping pickup truck loads of new blinds to Least of My Brethren which works to help the homeless in the Omaha Metro to get a meal, get an apartment, and find a job.
On the Field

At the Top
John became interested in the CASA program after hosting a dinner at his restaurant for them. CASA, which stands for Court Appointed Special Advocates, trains people to help children in the foster care system. On his 50th birthday, John climbed Mount Kilimanjaro. He used this climb to raise awareness of the CASA cause as well as helping to raise over 4000 dollars.
