2,400 Fairfax Area Families Need Holiday Help!

What better gift can you give during the holiday season than hope and help for our neediest neighbors?

Our Daily Bread has 3,500 individuals and families who live in throughout the Fairfax County area on our holiday assistance list -- and we need YOUR help to assist 2,400 families -- including more than 5,000 children -- who are still waiting and wondering if they will be helped.

Sponsor individuals or families for a December holiday meal and gifts for children. Or provide a donation so that we can help families who are not sponsored. Sponsoring a family is a wonderful way for families, friends, colleagues and groups of all kinds to make a difference at this special time of year.
