π About Friends of Guest House
Since 1974, Friends of Guest House has been a beacon of hope for women rebuilding their lives after incarceration. Based in Alexandria, Virginia and serving the greater Washington, DC metro area, Friends of Guest House has walked alongside more than 5,000 women as they broke the cycle of incarceration, reunited with their families, and reintegrated into their communities β proving, time and again, that a person’s past does not define their future.
Through a continuum of care that includes a Residential Program, Aftercare Program, Outreach Program, Workforce & Life Development, and a Mentor Program, Friends of Guest House meets women exactly where they are β offering case management, mental health and substance-use counseling, life skills training, and a genuine, judgment-free community. Because women reentering society face circumstances distinct from their male counterparts β often as the sole parent of young children, survivors of trauma and abuse, or individuals navigating mental health and recovery journeys β Guest House’s programs are purpose-built to help them heal, grow, and thrive.
This is a story of second chances, resilience, and transformation β and it’s a story we get to help write.
π The Day of Giving
The 2027 Connex Foundation Mid-Year IMPACT Project “Day of Giving” is a celebration of possibility β a day where our community comes together to fuel life-changing work at Friends of Guest House. Every dollar raised goes directly toward helping women write their next chapter: safe housing, career readiness, mentorship, and the everyday essentials that make a fresh start feel like home.
Join us in making this IMPACT Project our biggest, brightest, most heartfelt Day of Giving yet!
