Our recipient of this year’s Bill DuBois Legacy Award goes to Bette Rutherford!
Bette began volunteering at WGB in 2016, and from day one her passion for making a difference was evident. She seamlessly transitioned between various roles, each one contributing to the fabric of our mission. These include boutique volunteer, picking up donations as a driver, spearheading clothing drives, and garnering financial support. She’s also represented WGB at fundraiser events like Peterson Companies holiday carriage rides.
Bette’s commitment extends beyond our walls. She has lent her time and talents to other worthy causes such as Vale United Methodist Church, the Freedom Museum, Fairfax County Animal Shelter, and ARFAX (District Golf Association for women) where she serves as Secretary. And her passion for golf transcends leisure! In 2023, she chaired the annual Ladies Golf Tournament at the International Country Club, raising an impressive $21,000 for WGB.
As we honor Bette Rutherford, we also remember the dear man who this award is named after, Bill DuBois. We like to think he’s smiling down and very proud of Bette’s continued commitment to WGB.

Congratulations my friend!!
We’re told that our Group Volunteer of the Year are the ones that government agencies look to for innovative data solutions, products, and services. But for WGB, we turn to Hitachi Vantara Federal for a different type of support!
Since the summer of 2022, 27 volunteers from this business have dedicated over 90 hours of service at our facility. This includes switching the boutique over from one season to the next, which involves a lot of moving logistics! In addition, they’ve organized drives for clothing, socks, and back to school supplies. They were a sponsor at our Top Golf event and supplied treats last week to the families at our military shopping event.
We’re always happy to see the red t-shirts of Hitachi Vantara Federal volunteers come in to assist. Congratulations to the whole team on an incredible group effort!
