Community Breakfast in Fairfax City

On September 30, the American Turkish Friendship Association (ATFA) hosted a warm and welcoming Community Breakfast in Fairfax City. The gathering brought together neighbors, faith communities, businesses, nonprofit leaders, and public-safety partners for a relaxed morning of conversation and collaboration.

The discussion was both practical and solution-focused, highlighting ways to strengthen our neighborhoods, improve communication, and build resilience across sectors. These informal breakfasts provide an important space for participants to exchange ideas, share updates, and develop partnerships that directly benefit the community.

We extend our sincere thanks to Hilal and Turgay, owners of Home Store Furniture, for their generous hospitality in opening their doors to us and helping create such a welcoming environment.

ATFA is committed to continuing this series of community dialogues in other neighborhoods in the months ahead. By staying connected, listening to one another, and working together, we aim to build trust and make a positive difference for all who call Northern Virginia home.
