Back-to-School

You can help prepare young minds for a successful school year!

Cornerstones is once again hosting a Back-to-School Drive to support under-resourced students in Herndon and Reston schools. In years past, we asked for donations of backpacks to fill this major need. Along with Fairfax County Public School officials, we anticipate that backpacks will still be on the list as the school year progresses. But due to the uncertainty of the situation, we want to stand ready to pivot with the right resources to help these local children. 

For this year’s drive, please consider making a financial donation so we can purchase either backpacks or supplies, or both! 

You can donate online here or mail a check payable to Cornerstones at 11150 Sunset Hills Road, Suite 210, Reston, VA 20190. Please be sure to note in the comments section that your donation is for the Back-to-School drive. 

If you have backpacks to deliver, please plan to drop off your donation at our collection site: our volunteers will be accepting donations at the Reston National Golf Course, 11875 Sunrise Valley Drive, Reston, VA 20191, between the hours of 10 AM and 3:30 PM every Saturday in August.  Look for our tent and Cornerstones’ Laurel Learning Center Bus in the golf course’s parking lot.
