  • Volunteer Opportunities / Responsibilities: Britepaths depends greatly on volunteers to help administer our programs and engage the community.

    - DMV-area professionals who can work with our Workforce Development clients to review resumes, offer interview coaching and serve as short-term networking mentors
    - Supporting organizations to fund grocery store gift card deliveries to our Food Bridge families
    - Groups to assemble weekend food packs for students at our Fairfax County Public Schools partner schools
    - Groups to run food/fund/gift card drives to assist families who visit our Emergency Pantry
