Reston Interfaith


During these economic times many families are having to make the choice between paying the electric bill on time or buying a weeks worth of groceries. One organization that is assisting families in not having to choose between the two is Reston Interfaith.

As stated on their website:

"Reston Interfaith is a leading service provider offering comprehensive programs for 13,000 people in Reston, Herndon and northwest Fairfax County."

"Our Mission: We promote self-sufficiency through direct support and advocacy for our neighbors in need of food, immediate shelter, affordable housing, quality child care, and other human services."

Each year, over 2,000 volunteers generously give their time and efforts by participating with Reston Interfaith and our clients. We depend on each of these dedicated community members and the many ways that they are involved!
