Most of us take a safe, comfortable home for granted; others don't have that luxury.
Are you looking for a way to serve your community? Do you have trade skills or other gifts you are willing to contribute? Maybe you're a DIYer or looking for more challenge?
The FLHF needs volunteers to help us serve our community's most vulnerable. For more information about opportunities to serve, please reach out on our page or our website.
We appreciate your consideration,

What an exciting and busy year it has been getting our new development underway! And this is the icing on the cake! Our Executive Director was honored by the Louisa County Chamber of Commerce as their Nonprofit Leader of the Year! Thanks to the entire community for supporting FLHF. You are all a part of this recognition.

🏆 Congratulations to Kimberly Oliver Hyland our 2026 Nonprofit Leader of the Year!

Kim’s leadership at the Fluvanna/Louisa Housing Foundation brings together compassion, nonprofit management, and the expertise needed to turn complex housing plans into safe, affordable places to call home.

From helping residents remain in their homes through essential repairs to advancing housing opportunities for seniors and our workforce, she brings people and resources together to make meaningful progress for our neighbors. 👏

Today’s 4th Annual Louisa County Impact Awards Luncheon was a wonderful celebration of the people making a difference in Louisa County. Congratulations also to finalists Eddie Brown and Lacey Dabbs, whose leadership and dedication gave us so much to celebrate!

Thank you to Hantzmon Wiebel LLP, Piedmont Virginia Community College, Rappahannock Electric Cooperative, and United Bank for making this celebration possible, and to Callie Opie’s Orchard for welcoming us so warmly.

Please join us in congratulating Kim! 🎉

Many seniors in our area struggle to maintain their homes to age in place. Porch repairs, steps and ramp access to their homes become dangerously dilapidated and are a critical need. Thanks to volunteers from both Antioch Baptist and Effort Baptist for stepping up to help several Fluvanna residents with repairs! This is what community looks like and you all represent true Grace in your community. 💜🙏🏼

Thank you to Twice Is Nice for the continued support in our life changing Essential Home Repair program. They help keep seniors in their home and improve living conditions.

🏠 Twice is Nice is proud to support the Fluvanna/Louisa Housing Foundation, which has been helping local residents meet their housing needs for more than 40 years.

From helping with critical repairs and accessibility ramps to affordable rental housing and financial education, FLHF provides practical support that helps residents maintain safe and stable homes. For older adults, services like roof, HVAC, plumbing, and accessibility repairs can be especially important in making it possible to continue aging in place.

We’re proud to support their work in Fluvanna and Louisa counties!

Dear Friends,

We are excited to announce the launch of our new volunteering app! You can find it at:
https://volunteer.gogood.app/.

For many years, the team at the Fluvanna Louisa Housing Foundation (FLHF) has relied on volunteers to use their talents to serve our neighbors. Recently, we partnered with gogood.app to implement a modern management tool that fully harnesses our collective efforts.

One of the biggest challenges our community faces today is housing. Simply put, our vision is to ensure that everyone has a Warm, Safe, Dry, and Affordable place to live.

We welcome all types of volunteers! While we appreciate those with construction skills, we also need volunteers for administrative tasks such as fundraising and grant writing. Remember, if you can't swing a hammer or climb a ladder, there are still many ways to contribute!

Please log into our volunteer site using the link provided above. Look for the Fluvanna/Louisa Housing Foundation and check out the various opportunities available.

Thank you for investing in our communities.

Best,
Lloyd Runnett

Big news! AWS just donated $50,000 to support native landscaping at our Louisa County affordable housing development! This gift helps us bring drought resistant, pollinator friendly plants to the community — creating beautiful, low maintenance green spaces for future residents. Huge thanks to AWS for investing in both people AND the planet! 💚 🏡

You may have noticed a familiar face when we did the FB Live feed on Tuesday and wondered what Lloyd Runnett was doing on the scene. Mr. Runnett has graciously agreed to assist FLHF with our Construction Management while our Operations Manager has been out. His many talents and willingness to jump in wherever he is needed has been a relief for our busy organization! As former LCRC Executive Director, Lloyd worked closely with FLHF Executive Director, Kim Hyland, in collaborating to meet the needs of the community. We are even stronger working together. Thanks for jumping in, Lloyd. It’s been great having you around again. Our work is never done.
💜FLHF

Thanks for the support from our community. We appreciate the skills and involvement of so many citizens. Many thanks to our dedicated Board of Directors who have led this effort.

Louisa County has just taken a “big step forward” in supplying affordable housing to the community, according to Kim Hyland, the Executive Director of the Fluvanna-Louisa Housing Foundation (FLHF). On June 9 and June 11, FLHF held tours for local leaders involved in the project to check out the finished construction of four one-bedroom units before they are occupied later this month.

In August 2023, the Louisa County Board of Supervisors (BoS) unanimously approved an affordable housing application from FLHF to rezone the eight-acre site adjacent to the Louisa County Resource Council (LCRC) from industrial to residential to allow for the use of multifamily dwellings, a total of 25 housing units.

The 25 housing units include 16 one-floor, handicap-accessible senior living units available for individuals making under 60% of the county’s average median income, equating to roughly $36,000. The units are intended for residents aged 62 years or older or handicapped individuals.
