Since 2019:
Preparing Meals at Summer Volunteer Camp
"The two groups of summer campers collectively prepared enough dinners for FACETS to serve 275 meals. On top of that, the campers spent time thinking about the community's specific needs and prepared healthy and delicious options. They clearly understood how important it was to give people the respect and dignity every human deserves!"
"The campers are such a wonderful group and give me great hope for how our community will change as they start being leaders!" —Suzanne Hough, Volunteer Manager, FACETS.
"I wanted to express my sincere gratitude for the fantastic program you've provided the kids! It has truly enriched their lives through volunteering." Linda Do, parent of children who attended our Summer Volunteer Camp.
Gifts for the INOVA Healthcare Team
"I am a nurse at Inova.. on Monday, I was having a difficult day at work. I was going from one task to another, and it was becoming late, and I was tired and hungry. Suddenly, I saw a nurse handing out bags, and I received one. I looked in and sighed in relief. I saw a nurse handing out bags, and I received one. I am writing to thank the children... and to let them know that it made all the difference to me that day."
