On Martin Luther King Jr. Day Weekend, Volunteer Fairfax hosted two events. They had their Annual Valentine’s Day Challenge and Give Together. These were two amazing events.
Saturday, January 18, 2014 was the Valentine’s Day Challenge at George Mason University. At the event, families made cards for college students that have aged out of foster care.
Every year for the past nine years that Volunteer Fairfax has been doing this there has been a goal. This year’s goal was 2,500 cards. Caring Kids Cards has been proud to be a part of it all those years.
