At Northern Virginia Family Services (NVFS), one of the region’s largest and most established human services nonprofits, we believe every child deserves to walk into the classroom on the first day of school feeling confident, prepared, and ready to learn. But for many local families, the excitement of a new school year is overshadowed by the financial stress of buying school supplies. By helping families meet this essential need, we can ease financial pressure and give students the tools they need to succeed from day one.
This summer, NVFS is bringing together individuals, businesses, and community partners from across Northern Virginia, to provide new backpacks and essential school supplies to more than 1,500 local students in kindergarten through 12th grade. Together, we're helping children feel prepared for the school year ahead while easing the financial burden on families working toward greater stability.
You can help families start the school year with confidence. Whether you donate, host a supply drive, or spread the word, every contribution helps equip students for success in the classroom, and strengthens families across our community.
Help us reach our goal. There are several ways you can help.
<ul><li>Donate to our Back2School Fund online, and we'll shop for the most-needed supplies on your behalf: <a href="https://nvfs.link/b2sdonate" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">nvfs.link/b2sdonate</a></li></ul>
<ul><li>Shop our Amazon Wish List by July 22: <a href="https://nvfs.link/b2s2026amazon" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">nvfs.link/b2s2026amazon</a></li></ul>
<ul><li>Host a school supply drive or learn more about how you can support the campaign: <a href="https://nvfs.link/b2s" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">nvfs.link/b2s</a></li></ul>
The new school year will be here before we know it. Together, we can make back-to-school season a time to help more than 1,500 local students start the school year strong and give families one less worry as they work toward a brighter future.

Chapman DeMary Trail

Join us at the Chapman DeMary Trail at 1 p.m. on Sunday, July 26 to learn about the magic of honeybees and beekeeping. Cornell University Certified Master Beekeeper Ed Kicha with the Loudoun Beekeepers Association (LBA) will share information about these essential pollinators. This event is co-hosted by the Purcellville Parks and Recreation Advisory Board and the Tree and Environment Sustainability Committee, and is part of the Discover Nature’s Secrets series held the last Sunday of each month. Sign up online if you plan to join us: <a href="https://purcellvilleva.gov/881/Monthly-Nature-Walks" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://purcellvilleva.gov/881/Monthly-Nature-Walks</a>.
The LBA has been supporting a large and vibrant beekeeping community, ranging from new to commercial beekeepers, for over 40 years. Its focus is to introduce, educate, and foster sustainable beekeeping practices for its members committed to managing honeybees in Loudoun County. As for the real stars of the show - honeybees - they are currently ramping up their population numbers, gathering pollen to synthesize into bee food to feed both the young and adults, and of course gathering nectar from floral sources which they will convert into their primary energy source - honey. The bees are also actively swarming - which is reproduction at the colony level - basically creating new hives in the wild. During this activity, Mr. Kicha will share information about the basics of beekeeping, how to get started as a beekeeper, the various types of beehives and essential equipment, and the tie between plants and pollinators. There will be examples of hives, some tools of the trade, and, weather permitting, live honeybees in an observation hive! The observation hive is designed to allow humans and bees to safely observe each other up close without fear of contact.
Before you join us, be sure to go on the Nature Trivia Walk at the Chapman DeMary Trail and get all the answers. Bring your completed answer sheet with you to get a prize. Copies of the trivia walk sheet are at the trail.The sheet is also available online at <a href="https://purcellvilleva.gov/881/Monthly-Nature-Walks" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://purcellvilleva.gov/881/Monthly-Nature-Walks</a>.
Discover Nature’s Secrets is a monthly series of nature walks and environmental programs designed to inspire appreciation for the natural world.
