Clean & Dream: Restoring Dignity, One Bag at a Time
Join us in our mission to bring hope to under-resourced youth. In partnership with Patient First, we’re aiming to assemble 3,000 "bags of love"—essential hygiene kits, each paired with a heartfelt note of encouragement.
Access to basic necessities is about more than just hygiene; it’s a vital pillar of student success.
When teens have these essentials, they experience less stress, greater confidence, and improved school attendance. By helping us provide these kits, you aren’t just donating toiletries, you’re dismantling barriers to learning and reminding a young person that they are seen, supported, and encouraged to dream big.
How you can help.
Drop-Off Locations: You can deliver your items directly to any Northwest Federal Credit Union branch, or bring them straight to our Foundation:
NWFCU Foundation 220 Spring Street, Suite 120, Herndon, VA
