Marian Homes, a nonprofit in Fairfax Station that provides housing for adults with intellectual disabilities, was awarded a $6,000 grant from the American Land Title Association (ALTA) Good Deeds Foundation. Marian Homes was one of 24 nonprofits in the United States that received a grant in March from the ALTA Good Deeds Foundation.  

“We are honored to be the recipient of this grant from the ALTA Good Deeds Foundation,” said Jim McHugh, president of Marian Homes. “Our organization will use this grant to help provide affordable group housing for individuals with intellectual disabilities in Fairfax County.”  

The ALTA Good Deeds Foundation was launched in 2020 to bolster the charitable efforts of ALTA members. Since its founding, the foundation has provided $712,000 in grants to 121 nonprofits across the country.
