Roots to Branches (R2B) works with youth (11-18 years old) and partners with local businesses and organizations to provide a continuous cycle of service-learning projects that promote individual growth forcommunity sustainability.

We are offering youth programs in September that activate youth in a learning environment that: integrates emotional and social development; cultivates creativity and cooperation; and facilitates the change from adolescence to adulthood.

What programs are we offering:

  • Community Sustainability: An after-school program that engages youth in community service-learning projects.
  • School Engagement: An in-school program that collaborates with teachers to design and implement service learning initiatives that meet school-related objectives.
  • Rites of Passage: A weekend program that enters youth in a realm of interpersonal growth and development via adolescent Rites of Passage groups.

Why donations are needed: 

  • Business start-up fees (Becoming an LLC, Administrative fees, Legal Advisement)
  • Project materials to get the projects done.
  • Personal compensation for our coordinating the projects, including contacting schools, identifying sponsors and working with youth and community members.
  • Transportation of youth to and from the service-learning project site.
  • Marketing and advertising in the form of t-shirts for project participants, local news spot, and newsletters to get the good word out. 

MINIMUM START-UP GOAL: $50,000*

As a donor you will be able to stay up-to-date on all of our progress through our website (www.r2branches.org).

  • Very much on board with your vision for community building: I would love to live in a Fairfax where the deep talent pool of community resources is more knit together with the youth who will be it's future. Its inspiring to recognize how much we have to learn from those who are closest to us. Beautiful!
