Letter: ‘Work Sunday’s Thank-you

On behalf of the 20 local faith communities represented on the "Works Sunday" Committee, we write to express our heartfelt thanks to the extraordinary people of Reston and Herndon for their 17th consecutive year of wholehearted support of this unique day of charitable outreach and giving. As in years past, we can only marvel at their overwhelmingly generous response, and assure them of our gratitude, and that of the many people in whose lives they have made a real difference for the good.

For more than a quarter century the Virginia School Boards Association has been sponsoring a summer program, the "Governor’s Conference on Education."
