Miss Virginia Volunteer is proud to partner with The Salvation Army in multiple initiatives that embody our spirit of service. One key effort is the Red Shield Diner, where volunteers serve meals to those in need, creating a sense of community and support. We also participate in special events like the Angel Train Express, providing breakfast to the Charlottesville community. Working alongside Salvation Army staff, volunteers and residents alike experience a deep sense of fulfillment, fostering meaningful connections and giving back to those who need it most.

Miss Virginia Volunteers proudly supports D.A.R.E. (Drug Abuse Resistance Education), a crucial initiative dedicated to preventing drug abuse among youth. This program provides engaging, interactive lessons that educate students about the risks of substance abuse and equip them with the skills needed to make healthy, informed decisions. To further support this mission, Miss Virginia Volunteers actively visits schools to discuss the D.A.R.E. program and its benefits, fostering a supportive environment and empowering young people with the knowledge and confidence to build safer, drug-free communities. This hands-on involvement underscores our commitment to promoting positive youth development and resilience.

Miss Virginia Volunteer is proud to partner with YOVASO (Youth of Virginia Speak Out About Traffic Safety), a statewide peer-to-peer education and leadership program dedicated to preventing motor vehicle crashes among teenagers.

Through this collaboration, Miss Virginia Volunteer supports YOVASO’s mission to empower young people across the state to take the lead in promoting traffic safety within their schools and communities. By encouraging teens to speak out and take action, YOVASO fosters a culture of responsibility and awareness that can help reduce the risks associated with motor vehicle crashes. We are committed to amplifying YOVASO’s message and engaging youth in impactful programs and initiatives that promote safety, leadership, and community involvement. Together, we are working toward a future where safer roads are a reality for every young driver in Virginia.
