WASHINGTONVILLE HOUSING ALLIANCE
CELEBRATING 30 YEARS

AN ANNIVERSARY GALA

Over one hundred and seventy supporters and local residents gathered on May 6th, 2010 to celebrate Washingtonville Housing Alliance’s 30th Year Anniversary and to honor Beverly Brewer-Villa. This Gala event was held at the Mamaroneck Beach and Yacht Club. The fun started with an amazing performance by the Mamaroneck High School Jazz Band, directed by Tim Hooker. The band then had an experience of a lifetime when they were joined by renowned Jazz Trombonist Delfeayo Marsalis. The event was very successful and raised approximately $30,000 to support Washingtonville Housing Alliance’s general operations and programs.

Long serving Founding Board Members, Beverly Brewer-Villa, Robert Barber, Jefferson Meighan, Runett Mitchell, and Shirley Romney were recognized and applauded for their hard and dedicated work throughout the years. Our local politicians attended the event to show their support and dedication for Washingtonville Housing Alliance. Among the attendees were Mamaroneck Mayor Norman Rosenblum, Larchmont Mayor Josh Mandell, State Senator Suzi Oppenheimer, State Legislator George Latimer, Westchester County Legislator Judy Myers, and Town of Mamaroneck Supervisor Valerie O’Keeffe.  Beverly Brewer-Villa received a proclamation from Mayor Rosenblum declaring May 6, 2010, as “Beverly Brewer-Villa Day.”

Washingtonville Housing Alliance, based in Mamaroneck, NY provides affordable rental housing, emergency rent assistance, and senior home repair programs to Mamaroneck and the surrounding area.
