This city client's floors were on the road to levels of decay that could cause serious injury, so our team went in and fixed things up! Likewise, their front door was starting to sag, and had lost its ability to properly protect against the elements. Now, the winter weather is no concern 😊

Last year, we collaborated with Denise Rame Real Estate for a holiday fundraiser taking photos with Santa. Tonight, we rekindled that occasion and raised over $1,200 for the holidays! Thank you to everyone who came out, we were grateful to benefit from such generosity 💙

Our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who chipped in yesterday, and helped us raise $3,200 in one go! We're currently a tenth of the way to our campaign goal of $250,000 for the holiday, so if you haven't had the chance, please consider joining those who have given! www.ahipva.org/about/donate

While AHIP began as a strictly rehab-focused organization, the need for more targeted, timely repair services became quickly apparent, which led to our Critical Repair Program launching in 1987! Since then, we've balanced comprehensive rehabs, and targeted, yet impactful fixes 😊 #ThrowbackThursday

Getting sewage lines updated before the cold sets in can be crucial, as the changing temps may cause bursts on older pipes! Fortunately for this homeowner, our team was able to get them hooked up on a new pump chamber just in time for the turning of the seasons 😊

Closing out our week with a #philanthropyfriday feature on Madison House! These UVA volunteers consistently seek opportunities to support our work, which took the form this week of deck staining for a city client 😊 We're grateful for such steadfast partners, and wishing all a safe weekend!

This #ThrowbackThursday we're celebrating the start of one of our long-term partnerships in the work of affordable housing, @leapva.bsky.social! In 2010, our orgs came together to provide energy efficiency in Charlottesville, expanding out to the county 5 years later. The work continues to this day!

Wishing all a safe and fulfilling Veterans Day! Many veterans in our community are faced with various issues difficult to overcome alone, particularly those on disability, so lend a hand where you can ❤️

While AHIP formed in 1976, just two years prior came the organization's original sister group, CHIP! Originally made purely with the city in mind, our founders came to realize that county need was just as great. Thus, AHIP was born, and fused with its predecessor to cover city and county alike 😊

This #ThrowbackThursday is shining a spotlight on how far one of our clients' homes have progressed in the program! Last year, this home was faced with an unstable roof, a lack of accessibility, and energy leakage. Now, they've got a new ramp & windows, updated roofing, and plenty more to come!

We hope everyone is handling the weather shift smoothly and warmly! Fall generally brings some cozy evenings, but often at a severe price for those whose homes have lost their energy efficiency. Consider trying out a few of these tips, including a visit from our friends at @leapva.bsky.social
