Team registration for the Strikes for Stronger Families bowl-a-thon on Saturday, March 11, is now open! 

This benefit for the NVFS SERVE Campus is a great way for families, friends, companies and civic groups to get involved in strengthening the Greater Prince William community.

You can create a bowling team, become an event sponsor or make a direct donation.

All proceeds benefit programs on the SERVE Campus, which help address the immediate needs of local families and individuals so they can become self-sufficient.

Thank you for strengthening families in the Greater Prince William area!

As the adage goes, the quickest way to one’s heart is through their stomach. Food brings us together, and helps us show each other we care. At our NVFS shelters, volunteers show they care by sharing home-cooked meals. No matter where you find yourself, there’s just something about a home-cooked meal that brings people comfort. Here are a couple of our stand-out meals groups: 

BCCS – Providence Presbyterian Church is one of the most committed community partners at Bailey’s Crossroads Community Shelter in Falls Church. Every month it provides a fresh, home-cooked dinner for homeless clients; plus, during Hypothermia Prevention season, church members make bag lunches twice a month. That’s 1,150 meals over the course of a year. Thank you to Providence Presbyterian and all of our generous mealtime community partners!

SERVE – Beulah Baptist Church’s standard menu of chicken and ham dinners with veggies, mashed potatoes, corn, rolls and dessert, have been warming the bellies of our residents one Saturday every month for years. The church has often step in when other groups cancel and graciously provided Thanksgiving dinner last year! Thank you to Beulah and fellow mealtime partners for bringing warmth and comfort to homeless families! 

We are happy to work with groups (families, churches, businesses, etc.) and can help you plan your visit. For information on preparing a meal at BCCS, contact Meagan Perkins, 703.820.7621 ext. 216. For information on preparing a meal at SERVE, contact Navara Cannon, 571.748.2536.
