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.

Hands-On Home Improvement Workshops - Fair Oaks Mall

TradeWorx Academy

TradeWorx Academy is Northern Virginia’s hands-on home improvement training center, located inside Fair Oaks Mall. We help homeowners, DIYers, and beginners build the skills and confidence to take on real projects—not just watch someone else do them online. Our workshops are taught by licensed contractors who know how to make home improvement approachable, practical, and fun. From tile work and drywall repair to backsplash installation, power tools, plumbing basics, and minor electrical, each class is designed to help you understand the process, use the right tools, ask better questions, and feel more capable in your own home. With small class sizes, every participant receives hands-on instruction, direct access to the instructor, and the opportunity to practice skills in a supportive, beginner-friendly environment. At TradeWorx Academy, our mission is simple: empower people with practical knowledge, help them save money on home projects, and give them the confidence that comes from learning how to do it the right way. Visit [www.TradeWorxAcademy.com](http://www.TradeWorxAcademy.com) to explore upcoming workshops, reserve your spot, and see why TradeWorx Academy is changing the way Northern Virginia learns DIY.
