The YMCA Fairfax County Reston raised more than $100,000 on Saturday at its 15th annual fundraising gala.
The money goes to support the YMCA’s Fairfax County Reston Caring for Community campaign, which provides much-needed scholarships for area families. Through the scholarships, children have the opportunity to participate in a variety of quality YMCA programs, including preschool, after-school childcare and summer camp, regardless of their ability to pay.
This year’s gala theme was “Unmask the Potential.” The more than 314 guests became quite creative with the theme, wearing masks of all shapes and sizes.
