FAIRFAX, Va., Oct. 19, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The Freedom Bank of Virginia (OTCQX: FDVA) announced the Freedom Bank Foundation's inaugural Fall Gala raised over $110,000 to promote economic inclusion in the local community and support the critical work the Foundation has engaged in with the Community Business Partnership (CBP).

"We are grateful for the overwhelming success of our first ever Freedom Bank Foundation Gala. We are exceptionally proud of the generous support of such a diverse group of individuals and distinguished businesses for the Foundation's important mission.

We are so appreciative to our clients, employees, board of directors, vendor partners, and personal friends for their incredible support of the event and mission.
