Community Assistance and Response to Exigent Situations

CENV C.A.R.E.S. is an initiative by Community Empowerment Northern Virginia (CENV) designed to support families facing financial hardship in Loudoun County and surrounding areas. C.A.R.E.S. extends our reach beyond regular drives by providing direct assistance to individuals experiencing a loss of income or increased expenses within the past six months.

What We Help With

CENV C.A.R.E.S. has provided support in areas such as:

Rental payments

Car payments

Short-term financial relief

Each application is reviewed case-by-case to ensure fair and equitable distribution of support.

*While we strive to meet every request, financial assistance is not guaranteed and is dependent upon available resources. Applications for emergency assistance are accepted from October 1st through January 31st.*

We engage in local projects aligned with our mission to uplift the community. This includes:

Annual holiday assistance programs

Community events and resource fairs

Seasonal giving and family sponsorship

Since 2011, we have helped single mothers and low-income households find essential services by connecting them with local resources. We help you find what you need—from housing and employment to healthcare and education.

CENV sponsors a Youth Empowerment home also known as a "healing home" for young foster girls who have suffered traumatic experiences in their lifetime. The program provides the girls love, hope, and stability, while allowing them to process their trauma and heal in what the girls in the home refer to as a "safe space". With a strong focus on growth and the transition into adulthood, the home is dedicated to nurturing life skills, emotional stability, and independence—empowering each young woman to move forward with confidence and purpose.
