Testimonial

Partner Testimonial: Amazon

Amazon has partnered with Affordable Homes & Communities for [X years], first as a donor and volunteer partner and now as an investor in one of AHC’s most ambitious developments. Through the Amazon Housing Equity Fund, the company helped finance the redevelopment at 10 South Glebe Road in Arlington, where AHC and Goodwill of Greater Washington will create 128 affordable homes, an onsite childcare center, and a modernized Goodwill store and donation center on a transit-accessible site. [It is the first project in the country to pair a Goodwill retail location with affordable housing.]

“We believe everyone should have access to a home they can afford and that housing is most impactful when paired with services that help residents thrive. We’re proud to partner with Affordable Homes & Communities (AHC) as they celebrate 50 years of impact in the National Capital region.Together with AHC and Goodwill of Greater Washington, we’re helping create affordable homes near transit, jobs, and community resources—so families can set down roots and build toward what comes next.”

Amazon’s support reaches beyond the Housing Equity Fund. Employees have volunteered alongside AHC staff and residents, hosting Girls’ Tech Day at the company’s Arlington headquarters and assembling snack bags for students in AHC’s Afterschool program. This year, College & Career Readiness (CCR) graduate Nehemiah Abraha received an Amazon Future Engineer Scholarship and will attend Carnegie Mellon University this fall.

AHC is proud to welcome Amazon as a 2026 Champion sponsor as we celebrate our 50th Anniversary.
