ABOUT US
-
Share was organized in 1969 to help meet the emergency needs of our neighbors in McLean and the nearby areas of Northern Virginia.​
​​
-
We are an all-volunteer organization with no paid staff, no office, and no paid fundraisers. As a result, nearly all donations directly benefit our neighbors in need. It takes more than 1,000 volunteer hours per month to run our programs, so we are always recruiting new volunteers.
​
-
Although Share is an independent organization, we are grateful for generous support from local businesses, community and faith-based organizations. Our food and clothing room is housed is space donated by the McLean Baptist Church. ​​
