Earlier this summer, NVAR teamed up with the Prince William Association of Realtors® (PWAR) for a give-back event. Members packaged over a dozen boxes full of items ranging from pencils and crayons to lunchboxes and notebooks for the students at Belmont Bay Elementary School in Woodbridge, Va.

Belmont Bay Elementary School has 18% of its students in the “Blessings in a Backpack” program and 71% on free or reduced lunches. By donating and packing needed supplies, students that were in summer classes and those starting in the fall will be stocked up and ready for the new school year.
