The mission of the Victorian Society at Falls Church is to assist with preservation of historic structures and to educate our members and public about notable people and events that took place during the Victorian era.  We accomplish this not only by hosting a variety of education programs throughout the year, but also by holding fundraisers and donating money to a variety of organizations.  Here are some of the projects that we have donated to in the past:
