I wanted to start off by sharing some good news from the Census front. Despite the pandemic, Fairfax County has one of the highest response rates in the state at 73.3%! This is important news that will ensure investment and representation in our County. If you haven't filled out the Census yet, there is still time before staff from the U.S. Census Bureau begins to follow up in August. You can fill our your Census here .

 

I also wanted to make you aware that tomorrow May 16 and Tuesday, May 19 from 10am-3pm, Fairfax County Stuff the Bus is collecting food donations throughout Fairfax County and the City of Fairfax. There will be 21 drop-off locations and donations will benefit 10 area nonprofits. Below you will find tips to donate safely. See all drop off points, requested items, and more here .
