For the last 47 years, Volunteer Fairfax has been working to build the civic infrastructure needed to help nonprofits engage, train, and mobilize volunteers. VF’s mission is to lead, connect, and mobilize people and resources to build capacity for stronger communities. VF has nimbly reacted to the pandemic, the initial relief of a widely distributed vaccine, and then the uncertainty that has emerged from COVID-19 variants. While we have had to idle several signature programs due to CDC guidelines, our operations have been reconfigured, and staff time reallocated, to serve the community since the start of the pandemic.
