We are grateful to Supervisor Dan Storck @supdanstorck for hosting us in his office last week to present a proclamation to senior staff at New Hope. On November 1, the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors had recognized 21 local human service non-profits for their contributions during the first two years of the COVID pandemic. Supervisor Storck presented the plaque and proclamation to our team as we talked about the past, present, and future of human services on Route One. We’re grateful to be in a community that cares so much!

It was a beautiful and unseasonably warm Friday, October 21, when 1o volunteers from Hilton Arlington National Landing (formerly Hilton Crystal City) helped pick up litter along Seminary Road as part of the “Adopt-A-Highway” program of the Virginia Department of Transportation. New Hope Housing officially became an Adopt-A-Highway partner with this inaugural project and has committed to cleaning a 0.7 mile portion of Seminary Rd. near the Bailey’s Shelter at least twice a year.
This service project was part of the Hilton “Travel With Purpose” initiative which seeks “to create positive environmental and social impacts across [their] operations, supply chain, and communities.” In addition to removing 13 contractor-sized trash bags full of litter, the Hilton staff also held a cookout at the shelter after the project, grilling hot dogs, hamburgers and more for the guests and staff of the shelter.
“Being a good neighbor is a major goal at New Hope Housing,” said William Gorman, Interim Executive Director of New Hope Housing. “We’re committed to our communities, and grateful to have volunteers from the Hilton join us as we make this annual pledge to the Bailey’s community.”

We’d like to say thanks to Yellow Boomerang for their amazing generosity! Last week, Fred & Anna dropped off $1500 worth of new jackets, coats, sweatshirts, and sweatpants – all amazing stuff and so needed as we get closer to hypothermia season. Fred & Anna have already been donating meals to Bailey’s Shelter for years through Dast2Dast and wanted to do more to help. Well, they sure did!

Another reminder that The Potomac School is full of awesome students! Last week, we went to pick up 30 cleaning baskets for our Welcome Home kits from the 10th grade class. This makes 5 years in a row that students have done something wonderful for homeless neighbors moving into their new homes. The future is bright!

A HUGE thank you to Defenders of Wildlife for their amazing gift this week! Dana came by Bailey's Shelter with over 2,500 items of clothing and blankets for our shelter guests as we stock up and get ready for hypothermia prevention season! Absolutely amazing and such nice items (personal favorite is the t-shirt with the otters).
We're grateful Defenders chose New Hope and we hope you'll check them out and all their good work, too!
