Annual Holiday Giving Projects 2022
Tuesday, November 8th, 2022It’s time for our Annual Holiday Giving Projects for two very worthy local charities: Fairfax County Firefighters & Friends to the Rescue Toy and Coat Drive, and Britepaths. The Firefighters hold coat and toy distributions where many needy local children may select a holiday gift and a new warm winter coat. Britepaths uses our checks and grocery store gift cards to give to local needy families for food purchases in mid- January to early February, when the need is great and holiday giving has ended.
You do not need to be a member of the DWCNV to donate – all you need is a generous heart!
We will be hosting our Annual Holiday Giving Projects Meeting via Zoom on Sunday, November 20th from 5-7 P.M.
