What are nonprofit leaders saying?

" I look forward to nonprofit leaders from throughout Northern Virginia joining us for this important visit to Richmond. Our legislators need to hear from us - we need to share the compelling stories of our neighbors in need and why investments from the Commonwealth are so important to the programs we deliver."

Kerrie Wilson, Reston Interfaith

"I went on this trip last year and I had the opportunity to meet with legislative aides, as well as the delegates, and learned so much about the process. It was particularly interesting to at end the meeting of the Northern Virginia delegation, and listen to them tell us, as nonprofit leaders how we could help tem forward a common agenda. It was a great day - a good investment of my time."
