Assistance League To Showcase Its Programs At October Community Events
Nonprofit Will Be Part of Centreville Day Community Festival and Venture Into Volunteering Fair

Assistance League of Northern Virginia is excited to announce that it will participate in two free events in mid-October with the aim of showcasing its philanthropic programs and recruiting new members to its small but mighty organization.
On Saturday, October 14, Assistance League members will join other groups at the annual Centreville Day Community Festival in Historic Centerville Park, at 5714 Mt. Gilead Road from 10 am to 4 pm. This year’s theme is: Communities Working Together. Besides enjoying the fun and games, visitors learn how to work together to overcome some of today’s challenges. Members will be available to explain what the nonprofit is doing to address the challenges that young students and their families face, and to invite people to join the chapter and help with those efforts.
On Sunday, October 15, Assistance League will participate with other nonprofit organizations and local government agencies in the annual Venture into Volunteering Fair, sponsored by Fairfax County and Beacon Newspapers, from noon to 4 pm on the lower level of Springfield Town Center.
