Helping Hands: Better A Life

In Virginia, one in 10 children faces hunger every day—a staggering reality that strikes close to home for one local woman who grew up in Fairfax County. Determined to make a difference, she ensures that no child in need goes hungry, providing food and support through her nonprofit organization, BetterALife.

Recently, Easterns Automotive Group, in partnership with 7News, surprised BetterALife with a generous Helping Hand donation of $2,200. Overwhelmed with gratitude, BetterALife’s president, Elizabeth Ford, expressed how these unexpected funds are changing lives in the community. For Ford, this mission is deeply personal, rooted in her own experiences growing up homeless and struggling to find sustenance.

At BetterALife, the focus extends beyond food provision; it’s about empowering individuals with essential life skills and educational support. Through their efforts, they’re transforming lives, one meal and one lesson at a time.

With the support of Easterns Automotive Group and 7News, BetterALife is better equipped to continue their vital work, ensuring that no child or individual in need is left behind. Together, we’re making a meaningful difference in the fight against hunger and hardship in our community.
