Alexandria, VA–Burke & Herbert Bank representatives presented Northern Virginia Family Service (NVFS) with a check for $28,800 at the conclusion of the Bank’s annual Goals for Good Program. The amount is the highest presented to an organization in the program’s ten-year history. NVFS amassed this sum by receiving $100 from the Bank for each goal scored by the Washington Capitals during the 2024-2025 National Hockey League (NHL) regular season.
“It is a year for breaking records! Thanks to a great hockey year, we’re delighted to provide our highest donation in our Goals for Good program’s ten-year history to Northern Virginia Family Service,” remarked David Boyle, Burke & Herbert Bank Chief Executive Officer, “NVFS is doing the heroic work needed to build self-sufficiency and empower our local neighbors in need. Our historic bank remains committed to supporting the communities where we do business, and this is a great example. With our Monumental Sports partnership we can generate awareness and provide exponential support that goes beyond the Bank’s monetary contribution.”
Through this partnership with Monumental Sports, the Bank has raised awareness and funds for a variety of worthy not-for-profits in the DC Metro area since 2014. Burke & Herbert Bank has provided sizable donations to the Capital Youth Empowerment Program, Willing Warriors, GrandInvolve, Operation Renewed Hope Foundation, Homestretch, Inc., Rebuilding Together DC-Alexandria, Connect our Kids, Inc., Alice’s Kids, Inc. and Most Valuable Kids, Inc. In all, over $225,000 dollars donated to support children, housing, and veterans in the region.
Burke & Herbert Bank’s Goals for Good program supports NVFS in reaching over 40,000 families annually. “We are honored to have been selected as Burke & Herbert Bank’s Goals for Good recipient this season,” said Stephanie Berkowitz, president and CEO of Northern Virginia Family Service (NVFS). “Every day, NVFS is at the forefront serving our community, creating pathways to health and economic wellbeing for our neighbors.
