Thank You for 125 Years of Hope

On September 17, friends, supporters, and community partners gathered at The Maridor to celebrate 125 years of Family Service of Roanoke Valley. Thank you for joining us, and for helping us honor a legacy of strengthening families, healing trauma, and restoring hope across the Roanoke Valley. Every seat filled and every gift given helps a child, an adult, or a family find steady ground in their hardest moments.
