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.
