  1. $4.9 million spent. Fellowship Square Foundation provides affordable housing and services to seniors, 62 and older, at Hunters Woods Fellowship House (HWFH) in Reston, VA. In 1979, Fellowship Square opened HWFH, an independent living community of 224 apartments and a variety of programs and supportive services. HWFH boasts a beautifully redecorated common space for activities, games, exercise, social events, and wellness programs. The property is adjacent to a local shopping plaza which makes daily errands easy and convenient for residents. The property operates a 14-seat passenger van for weekly shopping and errands and seasonal field trips for residents. The organization provides a robust monthly calendar of programs and events focused on keeping residents active and engaged to lead richer, healthier, and more satisfying lives. These programs and events rely on a variety of volunteers and community partners, such as healthcare specialists, legal expertise, and other pro bono services. An onsite service coordinator is the linchpin to connect residents to other community resources, such as Medicare, Medicaid, and other benefits to which they are entitled. The property operates under Section 223 (F) of the National Housing Act and participates in the Section 8 program.
