Loading of Trucks for furniture delivery
 |
Volunteers
collect, warehouse, and deliver donated furniture, free
of charge, to needy families in the Annandale, Bailey's
Crossroads, and Culmore areas. The furniture is stored
in a building donated by Annandale United Methodist Church
and in a storage area provided by Fairfax County. ACCA
receives and screens requests for furniture through
a fax referral that involves Fairfax County human service
and specialized agencies, churches, and schools. ACCA
churches and community volunteers take turns providing
teams of volunteers to work at the warehouse located
at 6935 Columbia Pike on Saturday mornings.
