A “Dinner” to Benefit Marian Homes

Marian Homes is an organization chartered by our own Knights of Columbus Council 8600 to own houses used as Group Homes for the intellectually disabled.  Because of a decision by the Commonwealth of Virginia to close the institution now serving as residences for many intellectual disabled adults, there is an urgent need to increase the number of Group Homes in the Fairfax area.  Marian Homes is extending an invitation to participate in a Phantom Dinner and Gala as a means of raising funds for the purchase of a third house.  Please visit Phantom Dinner and Ball to find out more about how you can help in the worthy cause.  No tux required.  No silent auction to worry about.  No schedule conflict.  Just click the link.

Marian Homes, Inc. is a non-profit organization whose sole mission is to own and maintain group homes in Virginia for persons with intellectual disability.

They purchased their first home in the Brecon Ridge subdivision of Fairfax in 1998.  The home is currently the residence to five women who live in a family environment as productive members of their community.  Full time care of the residents is provided by Chimes Virginia, a well-established provider of services in Virginia.

With the resounding success of their first group home and in recognition of the overwhelming need of this type of housing in Northern Virginia, Marian Homes purchased a second home in the Greenbriar subdivision of Fairfax.  This home will be the residence for up to five men some of whom are expected to move to the residence in August 2010. Chimes Virginia will again provide the care for the residents.

Marian Homes is administered by a 15 member ALL VOLUNTEER Board of Directors responsible for financial matters, fund-raising and home maintenance. With no salaries, benefits, corporate taxes, utilities, or other normal administrative expenses; your contributions go farther to helping the cause.
