Barrows Gives Back
Barrows believes in giving back to the community that has always supported us, and we are proud to be a long-term partner of the Roanoke Valley.
Supporting Local Education
One of the ways Barrows gives back is through our local education centers, donating desks, chairs, backpacks, school supplies and computer equipment.
What Schools Are Saying
“Herman L. Horn is so grateful for the donations Barrows made to our school. With the furniture given to us, we were able to create small group learning environments, a cozy and calming center in the counselor’s office, more comfortable and stylish waiting space in the main office and more. We were also able to upgrade some of the teachers’ desks and provide students with alternative seating options.
Everyone who visits our school notices the new pieces and raves about how great it all looks. Thank you so much for your generous contributions to our school. We love it all!”
– Julie Sandzimier, Principal of Herman L. Horn Elementary
“The Community Youth Program is proud to have worked with Barrows to renovate our after-school program site. Barrows generously donated office furniture, televisions and classroom furniture. This donation greatly improved and modernized our space. We also received a donation of backpacks and other school supplies from Barrows. The students were so happy to have backpacks that were sturdy enough to last an entire school year. Barrows has been a wonderful supporter of CYP and a great asset to the community!”
– Jackie Smith, Executive Director of the Community Youth Program
