The Northern Virginia Chamber Foundation was created to source solutions to our Region’s workforce issues through original research and collaborative programming. Our mission is based on the principle that industry is the best driver of industry; that an investment in Northern Virginia’s business community will benefit us all today, and on into the future.
We have carefully curated all of our Foundation programs to maximize impact on our business community. Available free and to the public, our work is focused on building a more inclusive, stronger Northern Virginia workforce. The Foundation’s priorities are:
- Develop programs and activities to support the region’s workforce development initiatives;
- Develop programs and activities to address issues facing our military veterans, including housing, job opportunities, training, and mental health;
- Collaborate with and among educational institutions and other exempt organizations to support the Northern Virginia Region;
- Develop programs and activities that advance diversity and social equity in the Northern Virginia Region;
- Manage a scholarship fund for children of valor awardees and
- To sponsor, host, and/or participate in events and activities that promote education and community growth in the Northern Virginia Region.
