Gabriel Homes is a finalist for Nonprofit of the Year for the 2025 Awards for Chamber Excellence (ACE) in Reston.
Hosted yearly by the Greater Reston Chamber of Commerce (GRCC), the ACE Awards honor Reston’s innovators and trailblazers. GRCC members nominate and vote on the finalists for businesses, entrepreneurs, and nonprofits.
Gabriel Homes saw growth and change in 2024 leading to the nomination.
In April, Gabriel Homes unveiled its new logo, a tree sheltered in a home, and launched the new gabrielhomes.org featuring a modern, accessible design.
Residents in the spring and fall celebrated two new parties, the Spring Fling and Boo Bash. And for Gabriel Homes’ end–of–year campaign, the community came together and raised 32% more funds than they raised in 2023.
Gabriel Homes has also used GRCC member benefits to build relationships with local businesses and nonprofits.
By networking and partnering with Northwest Federal Credit Union (NWFCU), some staff have participated in our annual golf tournament, and NWFCU became a gold sponsor in 2024.
“The Chamber is a game changer for businesses and nonprofits. Connections through GRCC enable Gabriel Homes to serve the residents better and expand its services.”
