We work with local schools, shelters and churches to identify and serve children in need. And we work with generous members of our communities - like you - to fulfill the needs of these children. We want kids looking and feeling great for the first day of school. That's why local barbers, beauticians and other volunteers join us each year to give over 100 free haircuts. 0 25135 We partner with local businesses to fill over 2,500 backpacks with brand-new notebooks, sharpened pencils and other fun supplies. Then, we distribute the filled backpacks to schools, shelters and non-profits throughout Fairfax County and surrounding areas! 0 25135 With local temperatures dipping below freezing on average of 71 days each year, our kids need warm winter coats. In partnership with Operation Warm and other organizations, we distribute over 3,000 coats to kids in need each winter. These Made in America coats not only bring warmth and joy to impoverished children but they also create new American jobs. 0 25131 Each year, we come together with our community to collect and distribute over 3,500 toys and bikes. Remembering the true meaning of the holidays, we share these gifts with local families who struggle financially. 0 25135 100536 Willie Bailey President 20 0 0 0 Michael Johnson Director 1 0 0 0 Chris Thompson Director 2 0 0 0 Kendall Thompson Director 2 0 0 0 Bruce Wituki Director 2 0 0 0 Lisa Kelly Treasurer 1 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Willie Bailey 224 Burgess Avenue Alexandria VA 223051903 7039090523 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 0 96399 96399 0 0 0 0 96399 96399 96399 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 96399 0 X Schedule A, Part II, Line 10 Our mission is to help fill some of the gaps with the things these kids need most - backpacks and school supplies, warm new coats for winter and gifts to help make the holidays special.
