6th Annual Dulles Greenway Drive for Charity

Participate in the Dulles Greenway and its parent company Toll Road Investors Partnership II in their annual Drive For Charity. Drive for Charity is a day each year in which toll collected on the Greenway is dedicated to local Loudoun charities and is very often the busiest day of the year on the roadway. The Dulles Greenway is proud to have contributed $226,246.67 in 2010 and $1,030,455.88 over the last five years!

In 2011, the Drive for Charity is Thursday May 19th and we are working with the following five charities and the Dulles Greenway Scholarship program to share in the distribution of the Drive for Charity’s one-day revenues:

 • The March of Dimes (National Capital Area chapter)

• Loudoun Abused Women’s Shelter (LAWS)

• FreshAir/Full Care

• Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy

• Dulles Greenway Citizenship Award

 

The Dulles Greenway Citizenship Award was designed to commend and reward those students who consistently reflect excellence in character and who have demonstrated their leadership skills by making a positive contribution to the community. We are proud to have provided scholarships for 91 Loudoun County Students, with at least one student from each of the County’s twelve High Schools.   The Dulles Greenway will continue to work with Loudoun County schools and support the future of education.
