Giving Back to the Charlottesville Community

W.E. Brown has been an active part of the Charlottesville community for over 100 years. We are passionate about supporting local causes and we set aside reasources every year to ensure that we are giving back to our community.

The W.E. Give Back Program was created to help non-profit organizations by bringing recognition to their tireless work in helping our neighbors. 

How it Works

  1. From the nominations submitted through the form below, our team reaches out to several Charlottesville-based non-profit organizations each year. 

  2. We partner with a professional videographer to help coordinate the production of a 2-minute video for each nonprofit organization. 

  3. We work with NBC29 to air the full video during a live broadcast in order to spread awareness about the organization’s work. The organizations also get copies of the full video as well as all of the video footage to use in their own marketing efforts.
