Your generous donation helps break the cycle of homelessness by providing housing for those who need it most. HomeAid helps people get back on their feet by providing them with newly renovated homes they can be proud of. Research shows that stable housing improves health, increases children’s educational achievement, and strengthens community ties.

There are so many ways that you can support HomeAid Northern Virginia
Give to the HomeAid Northern Virginia Annual Campaign
HomeAid raises money to support our shelter partners in many ways including our building/renovation projects, our new ‘Afternoon at Wolf Trap’ event for shelter families, the Annual Housing Forum. Your personal or corporate donation is critical to our ability to continue to take on projects and provide services for the shelter community. Download our donation form here or donate online.
Event sponsors garner tremendous recognition alongside HomeAid’s name and reputation for fun and exciting events that the homebuilding community and the public in general attend. By sponsoring an event, your company will receive significant marketing, public relations and promotional exposure that is directed toward specific target audiences. Learn more about our Gala & Auction, Golf Tournament, Builder & Friends BBQ and other events here.
The homes and shelter facilities we build and renovate are beautiful, welcoming, and comforting, but they are missing some of the most basic items that a person needs to recover from homelessness and get back on their feet! Filling refrigerators with much-needed food or homes with new kitchen utensils and bathroom supplies is just one way that your volunteering efforts can make a positive difference in someone’s life. Learn more about all of our volunteer opportunities here. And contact us to let us know if you’re interested in running a drive, filling a fridge, or collecting items for a “Welcome Home Basket.”
Host a Third-Party Event
Directly donating to HomeAid, sponsoring a HomeAid event, and volunteering aren’t the only ways you can give to HomeAid and make a difference. By hosting a third-party event, you can raise funds for our organization in a number of ways—and just as importantly spread awareness about HomeAid to your friends, coworkers, or others in your network!
Third-party events come in a variety of forms and all benefit our organization, no matter the size or occasion.
Examples include, but are not limited to:
- Collection drives (backpacks, essentials, etc.)
- Raffles
- Company picnics/holiday events
- Sports tournaments (i.e. golf tournaments, corn hole tournaments, etc.)
- Benefit concerts
- Office jeans days
- Benefit yoga classes
- Restaurant donation days
- And more!
If you’re ready to start planning your third-party event, or have any questions about how you can get started today and how we can help, please contact Kristyn Burr 571-283-6320 or kburr@homeaidnova.org.
Your generous donation of stocks or mutual funds will assist HomeAid in our mission of providing temporary shelter to Northern Virginia’s homeless families and individuals. A gift of appreciated securities provides increased value to HomeAid Northern Virginia at a decreased cost to you.
Other benefits include:

- Elimination of capital gains tax that would ordinarily become due if you had sold the appreciated securities on the open market and donated the proceeds of the sale to HomeAid Northern Virginia.
