At CAYA, we believe that the strength of our organization lies in the passion and dedication of our people. We are incredibly fortunate to have a team of all-volunteer staff who go above and beyond every single day to ensure our community is served efficiently and effectively. Their commitment and tireless efforts are the driving force behind our success.

Our team members come from diverse backgrounds, bringing a wealth of experience in various areas of philanthropic work. This diverse expertise allows us to approach community challenges from multiple perspectives and develop innovative solutions. Each volunteer contributes their unique skills and talents, creating a powerful synergy that amplifies our impact.

We are united by a shared passion for empowering marginalized and underserved individuals and families in the Charlottesville community – children, teens, single parents, seniors, the disabled, homeless, and incarcerated – by providing essential resources and inspiring hope. We strive to create a just and equitable society where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. This shared commitment fuels our dedication and inspires us to work tirelessly towards our goals.
