August 2025 - Supporting Education Through Woodbridge Islamic School

At RE/MAX Galaxy, our Galaxy Fund is dedicated to making a difference in the lives of children by supporting causes that promote education, opportunity, and hope. We are proud to have contributed $1,200 to the Woodbridge Islamic School during their recent Fundraising Dinner.

The event, which brought together community leaders and supporters, aimed to raise funds for student scholarships — ensuring that more children have access to quality education regardless of their financial circumstances. Education is one of the most powerful tools to break barriers and create brighter futures, and we are honored to be part of this effort.

By helping fund scholarships, we’re not just supporting a school — we’re investing in the dreams and potential of the next generation. The proceeds will directly help deserving students pursue their academic goals, empowering them to become future leaders in our community.

At RE/MAX Galaxy, we believe that when we invest in education, we invest in a better tomorrow.

August 2025 - Supporting the Homes of Hope Fundraiser 

At RE/MAX Galaxy, our mission goes beyond real estate — we believe in building hope and creating opportunities for those who need it most. Through our Galaxy Fund, we proudly contributed $1,000 to the Homes of Hope fundraiser 

Homes of Hope is dedicated to providing shelter, education, and a brighter future for underprivileged children. By partnering with organizations that share our vision, we are helping break the cycle of poverty and give children the tools they need to thrive. Every dollar raised helps create safe living environments, access to quality education, and essential healthcare — giving these kids not just a home, but a chance at a better life.

Our commitment to this cause reflects the core values of RE/MAX Galaxy: community, compassion, and impact. We are honored to stand alongside Shahid Afridi and the Homes of Hope team in their mission to transform lives, one child at a time.

July 2025 - Helping Neighbors in Crisis: Supporting St. Vincent de Paul, OLA Conference 

At Galaxy Fund, we believe real impact begins in our own community. That’s why we proudly contributed $500 to support the St. Vincent de Paul Society’s OLA Conference—an organization that quietly makes a powerful difference for families in need right here in Woodbridge.

With our support, the OLA Conference was able to provide emergency relief for local individuals facing financial hardships—helping cover essential needs like utilities, medication, and basic groceries. The funds also supported their on-site food pantry, which serves dozens of families every month with dignity and compassion.

One of the families assisted included a single mother of three who recently lost her job and was struggling to keep the heat on during the winter months. Thanks to the OLA Conference and donors like Galaxy Fund, her utility bill was covered just in time, preventing disconnection and giving her some breathing room to find stable employment.

This story—and countless others like it—remind us why we do what we do. Every dollar we give isn’t just charity; it’s a lifeline, a second chance, and a show of solidarity with the people who make up the heart of our community.

May 2025 - Standing with a Family After Tragedy

In May 2025, a tragic car accident on I-81 in Botetourt County, Virginia, claimed the lives of two young brothers—a 22-year-old and his 15-year-old sibling. Their vehicle collided with a parked tractor-trailer on the side of the highway, resulting in a loss that devastated their family and community.

During this time of immense sorrow, Galaxy Fund stepped in to offer support where it was most needed. We provided $5,000 in direct assistance to help the grieving family with funeral expenses and urgent financial needs.

While no amount of money can ease the pain of such a heartbreaking loss, we hoped to lift a small part of the burden, allowing the family to focus on healing without the added weight of financial stress.

Moments like these remind us why our mission matters. At Galaxy Fund, we believe in showing up for our community—not just in times of celebration, but especially in times of need. Because behind every tragedy is a family that deserves compassion, dignity, and care.
