How Friendship and Faith Helped “Brick” Find Hope Again
When Brick first came to Friendship Place, he was facing homelessness and uncertainty about his future. With the support of our programs and the encouragement of caring friends, he found not only the resources he needed, but also dignity, stability, and hope.
Today, Brick’s journey reminds us that with compassion and community, transformation is always possible.

Success Stories from Your Neighbors
A Journey of Resilience: Ms. Washington
When Ms. Vivia Washington came to Friendship Place, she was living in a shed and struggling to make ends meet. With encouragement from our team, she applied for housing. We praise God that she has been approved! We walked alongside her through the strenuous paperwork and the entire waiting process as she faced moments of doubt. Ms. Washington will soon be moving into her new home. Her resilience and determination remind us why we do what we do—because every neighbor deserves hope, stability, and a fresh start.
Marie Livingston,
Executive Director
We learn our neighbors and who they are and how we can better assist them with their various needs.
It’s truly an honor to serve as the executive director of Friendship Place, following in the footsteps of my parents, grandparents and great-grandparents who dedicated themselves to helping others in this very same community. Every day, I witness the impact Friendship Place has as neighbors walk away feeling empowered and valued. With your continued support, I’m excited about the progress we’ll achieve together in enriching the well-being of Georgetown.
