BJ’s Wholesale Club of Falls Church donated $1,700 in goods to the Friends of the Falls Church Homeless Shelter for the winter emergency shelter and its residents. The nonprofit Friends organization was created in 1996 to address the critical need for emergency housing in the community, especially during the winter months.

In partnership with New Hope Housing, the “Friends” manage and operate the Shelter providing warm beds, meals, and counseling to the homeless in Falls Church from December through March, and offer year round case management for Shelter residents.
