Thankful for Our Residents and Partners |

Atlantic Housing Foundation relies on volunteers from both inside and outside the community to help with events. Resident Service Coordinators work with our volunteers to schedule their time and make sure events go smoothly. All of our volunteers are background checked and they help make our resident events successful. We celebrate our volunteers and say thank you to each and every one. We truly appreciate your service.
If you would like to volunteer for a program, please contact your community manager or resident services coordinator. We need you to help us make a difference.
Thank you to our residents and volunteers!

The Restoration Empowerment Apostolic Life Church sponsored a Thankful Giving Turkey Giveaway at the Waters at Magnolia Bay Apartments. The assistance of vendors made it possible to distribute over fifty boxes to the community.
"We are so thankful here at Waters at Magnolia Bay." -Juanita Small, Resident Services Coordinator.
This would not have been possible without the support of The Restoration Empowerment Apostolic Life Church and their commitment to serving the community.
Due to COVID-19, our traditional community event was modified to allow for the food delivery.
