We were thrilled to welcome over 400 people to our 50th Anniversary Pantry Celebration on Sunday, May 18th! It was wonderful to see so many new and familiar faces from the Lorton community joining us for this occasion!
There were opportunities to volunteer in the pantry, a bouncy castle, community partners offering activities, and a dunk tank in which LCAC’s own Josh Henry was dunked over 80 times.
The heart of this special event was centered on honoring 50 years of LCAC’s contributions to the Lorton community and dedicating our food pantry to our founder Christine Herbstreith. Supervisor Dan Storck also presented a resolution in celebration of our Anniversary.
Our annual Gala was held Saturday, April 26th at Historic Woodlawn at 9000 Richmond Hwy, Alexandria VA. The gala raised funds that help support LCAC programs and services throughout the year and this year we also celebrated 50 years of LCAC!
Thank you to our top sponsors!
