1,300 Local Families Still Need Help for the Holidays!

Britepaths' Holiday Program needs people to sponsor families or donate so that 1,300 families in need receive holiday meals and gifts.

Local non-profit Britepaths provides emergency assistance and self-sufficiency programs to struggling Fairfax County area residents throughout the year. This holiday season, we have 3,000 individuals and families in need on our Holiday Assistance list. As of December 1, we still have 1,300 families on our list who are waiting to receive holiday meals and gifts for their children.

We need donations by December 12 to ensure that all families who are still waiting for help are able to receive it in time for the holidays.
