As the end of 2025 draws to a close, we’ve finalized our numbers and are incredibly proud to share our charitable contributions for the year. From day one, our mission has been bigger than just putting on an event. It’s about giving back and reinvesting in the community that supports us. Our goal is always to donate at least 30% of all profits, and this year we didn’t just meet that goal. We exceeded it in a big way.
Total donated in 2025: $70,768.19
These contributions represent real meals served, real families supported, and real lives impacted. This year, we were honored to support the following organizations.
So What Else $40,000
So What Else is a local charity providing critical hunger relief services to individuals and families in need across the DMV, ensuring no one in our community goes without a meal.
MHCprograms $17,786.19
MHCP is a veteran focused charity dedicated to mental health support by raising awareness and providing resources for the challenges faced by our veterans and active duty service members.
TABLEWARCharities $10,000
TABLEWAR Charities supports children and adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder by providing Autism Advocates who work directly with families and schools. Their advocacy ensures students receive the services, accommodations, and understanding they deserve while empowering parents through the process.
Loudoun Hunger Relief $3,000
A local food bank supplying much needed food to our community. This donation was made possible through our great friends at NOVA FoodMachine, helping extend our impact even further.
None of this would be possible without our incredible team of volunteers. Thousands of hours were donated behind the scenes setting up, breaking down, problem solving, and showing up with passion every single time. Your dedication is the backbone of NOVA, and we are endlessly grateful.
And just as important is the community that continues to believe in what we do. With nearly 4,500 attendees, this year became the largest NOVA in our history. Your presence, energy, and support are what turn hard work into real impact.
As we close out 2025, we’re already looking ahead with bigger goals, deeper community partnerships, and an even stronger commitment to giving back.
If you believe in what we’re building, follow along, share our mission, and join us in 2026 as we continue to grow and give back.
Thank you all for an incredible 2025. We can’t wait to see you in 2026.
