CFH, a 45-year-old Northern Virginia housing nonprofit, has announced that its 7th Annual CFH 5K Run-Walk for Affordable Housing and 2nd Annual Cornhole Toss Tournament will take place at Occoquan Regional Park at 9:30 am on October 6.

As part of this annual fundraiser, CFH is also asking race participants to bring non-perishable food items for its food pantry.

In addition to its rescue and ongoing management of the East End Mobile Home Park in Manassas, Va., CFH conducts a variety of programs related to affordable rental housing, first-time homeownership and senior emergency assistance, and also runs a food pantry from East End.
Based in Manassas, Va., CFH helps individuals and families along a path of self- sufficiency, providing assistance to individuals and families all along the continuum of housing needs. The CFH board of directors represents a diverse group of individuals who provide expertise in business, development, architecture, financial services and real estate.

These leading physicians are redefining the patient experience with same-day appointments, direct availability, unhurried visits, and deeply personalized care:
After almost 40 years in practice, Manassas-based Internist John Cary, MD’s change to concierge medicine enabled focused attention for each individual, and the launch of his innovative diet program for those with type 2 diabetes. “The goal is to promote enough weight loss to reach an acceptable A1C of 6% with no medication,” he explains. “Achieving that can take several months of very close follow up. As I tell my patients, we are in this together.”
Jay Tyroler, MD considers his patients quite literally as family. “I believe there’s nothing more honorable than helping patients when they’re sick, or scared, or feeling vulnerable, and I care for them exactly as I would my loved ones.” Whether for a specialist referral, urgent health issue or ongoing follow up, “My patients know I’m always just a phone call away.”
