    🐾 Happy National Dog Day! From our adorable friends Tuli and Emma, we want to celebrate the joy and love dogs bring into our lives! 🐾 Pets aren’t just companions; they’re family members who bring us endless happiness and support. That’s why having a clear and transparent pet policy in all our communities is so important! Pet policies help ensure: 🏡Harmonious Living : Clear guidelines help prevent conflicts between pet owners and non-pet owners, ensuring everyone feels comfortable and respected. 🐕Health & Safety : Proper rules help maintain a clean and safe environment for all residents, including managing pet waste and keeping common areas pet-friendly. 🐩Responsible Pet Ownership : Transparent policies encourage responsible behavior, such as proper pet care and training, which benefits both pets and the community. Here’s to celebrating our furry friends today and every day! 🏠🐾💙 #NationalDogDay #PetPolicy #HappyPets #CommunityLove

    As part of Carmax’s commitment to community service, employees serving on its giving committee meet the nonprofits that CarMax supports to learn more about their work and mission, see how Carmax grant funds are put to work, and share their findings with their colleagues. Today we were honored to visit with Carmax Ambassador David Harold, Director of Technology Operations. After learning more about BHC’s affordable housing work in the Richmond region, David toured The Planet in Jackson Ward, including a stop on the rooftop deck with Director of Fund Development Anne Hurt (l) and Director of Family Services Kamala Allen (r).

    🌟 National Night Out 2024🌟 What an incredible evening we had at the Winchester Greens and Market Campus earlier this week for National Night Out 2024! The weather worked with us, setting the stage for families and seniors to enjoy various activities organized by our amazing team. The night was filled with fun and laughter, featuring community partners, delicious burgers and hotdogs, face painting, a bounce house, and exciting soccer inflatable games. Residents enjoyed the thrill of the raffle and cake walks, adding to the excitement! 🎈 A huge thank you to all of the residents, staff, vendors, and Chesterfield PD who came out and made this event so special. We’re already looking forward to next year! 💫 #NationalNightOut #WinchesterGreens #CommunityFun #FamilyFun #GreatMemories
