Reston, VA – Hunters Woods at Trails Edge Senior Living Community held a fundraising reception on December 6th. Attendees included Fellowship Square residents and board members, team members, senior providers, and other members of the local community. Delegate Ken Plum , member of the Virginia House of Delegates, representing the 36th District since 1982, also attended. The fundraiser included a Silent Auction and the sales of snowflake ornaments for the “Giving Tree” , which will be on display at the Hunters Woods At Trails Edge showroom until the first of the year. The snowflakes are small $20, medium $50, and large $100/each, and those who purchase them can put their name and a message on them. “Giving Tree” Gifts will brighten the holidays for Seniors in need.
“We are a people-centric community, and we know that there is a certain population that we would be unable to serve directly but we still want to help in whatever way we can,” states Annamarie Mariani-Huehn , Executive Director of Hunters Woods at Trails Edge. “Very early in our development of Hunters Woods at Trails Edge, we connected with Fellowship Square and have been working on various ways to collaborate to serve this under-served population. The holidays are a time where we reflect on how fortunate we are and it often inspires people to think of those less fortunate, so it’s become a natural time for giving. We’re hoping that even after this first fundraiser for Fellowship Square, people will open their hearts and their wallets to support the aging community in Reston. We appreciate that Fellowship Square provides a warm home which allows people to remain as independent as long as possible, and with dignity and want to be sure that we’re doing our part to raise awareness (and money) to support their efforts.”
