Britepaths Holiday Program Helps Families In-Need During The Holidays
Britepaths, a Fairfax-based nonprofit dedicated to building resilience and financial stability for individuals and families in Northern Virginia, is seeking donations from the community to provide holiday meals and gifts for children of Fairfax County area families in need. This annual initiative invites the community to help bring warmth and joy to families and individuals facing financial hardship during the holiday season.
Through the Holiday Program, Britepaths connects local donors with clients who need assistance in celebrating the holidays. Community members are encouraged to participate by sponsoring families through financial contributions which allows Britepaths to purchase and distribute $50 Walmart gift cards per child to client families. These gift cards allow families to purchase essentials, groceries, and gifts for their loved ones.
“In a season that can be especially challenging for the families we serve, our Holiday Program offers a meaningful way for the community to come together and make a positive impact,” said Abra Kurt, Executive Director of Britepaths. “With the continued support of our donors, volunteers, and partners, we are able to provide a brighter holiday season for local children and their families.”
This year, Britepaths aims to reach more families than ever. Last year’s Holiday Program helped 265 children enjoy a more joyous holiday season. This year with rising costs of living impacting even more households, the organization plans to meet a growing need in the region by providing aid to serve at least 340 local children. Contributions made to the Holiday Program allow Britepaths’ clients to celebrate their holiday season with dignity and warmth. Checks or gift cards may be mailed to Britepaths at 3959 Pender Drive, Suite 200, Fairfax, VA 22030. Please write “HP24” in the check memo line. Britepaths welcomes local businesses, schools, and community groups to join the program by making a donation or hosting a holiday giving drive. Those interested in supporting the Holiday Program can learn more by visiting britepaths.org/holiday24 or contacting Britepaths at 703.273.8829 or events@britepaths.org.
