Egg My Yard
Apr 3 @ 7:00 pm – 11:45 pm

What’s better than waking up with the kids on Easter morning to discover your yard is covered in brightly colored, candy and trinket filled eggs? Not having to sneak outside and scatter eggs yourself without getting caught is certainly a big help!

For a $50 donation, Friends of Loudoun County Animal Services will deliver 30 eggs to your yard on Saturday night and place them in an area designated by you. They will text you before arrival to let you know they’re on the way, and again when they’re leaving so you know the job is done.

The bunny helpers are stuffing eggs now in preparation for the big night! Sign up now to secure your spot and to support a good cause!

Silence No More Survivor Movement
Jun 11 @ 12:00 pm – 2:00 pm
Silence No More Survivor Movement

Friday, June 11, 2021, 12-2PM, join The Silence No More movement as we honor and recognize survivors of domestic violence for their courage, strength, and perseverance and the individual support systems that are there long before police, restraining orders and court systems.

The Silence No More Movement is designed not to erase the past. But more importantly, to recognize the strength of a survivor and the support systems that got them there. It’s through experience, determination, passion, resilience, selflessness, and love that these individuals circle back to help change the mindset of current victims with hope for progress, justice, and healing.

The event will include remarks from the Loudoun County Commonwealth Attorney’s Office and local supporters of The Silence No More Movement.

The goal is for attendees to feel from listening, be uplifted from the stories of survival, and feel empowered to join the fight to guarantee that abuse will not continue to happen every 20 seconds in our nation.

This is a public event. RSVP is required.
Live Jazz and light appetizers.

Sponsored by The Silence No More Movement and Loudoun County Commonwealth Attorney’s Office
