For our final new staff feature, meet Cristina Coulter, our new Chief Financial Officer. Cristina joins WCHR with more than two decades of experience serving nonprofit organizations in finance, accounting, and organizational leadership. Throughout her career, she has helped mission-driven organizations build strong financial systems, improve governance, and create the infrastructure needed to support their missions.

Cristina says she was drawn to WCHR because of “the organization's commitment to expanding housing opportunities and strengthening the community.”

As CFO, Cristina is leading efforts to modernize our financial systems, strengthen internal controls, improve reporting, and support long-term planning.

Outside of work, Cristina enjoys spending time with her husband, Kevin, and their family. She loves discovering live music, taking walks in nature, cooking for family and friends, dancing, and unwinding in the hot tub after a busy week.

Next up, we are highlighting Charity Enimil, our not-so-new Lending Assistant. Charity is not-so-new because she came to us from Robert Half as a temporary Lending Assistant over seven months ago. Charity has now transitioned to a staff role, and we are so excited to have her on board. In addition to assisting our community lending fund, WCHR Securities, and service loans, Charity has helped create online applications, served as a liaison to our loan applicants and has helped our lending fund get organized and become more efficient.

Before she came to WCHR, Charity had several roles in financial aid administration, including serving as the Assistant Director of Financial Aid at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. Charity also brings to the position several years of experience at lending institutions, including the Bank of Canton and DCU. Charity also has two master's degrees.

She enjoys baking, traveling, and playing tennis.

We are thrilled to have Charity on board and appreciate all of the insights and technical skills she brings to WCHR.

Today, we’re introducing you to Aidan Aciukewicz. Aidan joined the team this month as a Project Manager in our Development Department. Here, he will be working on the design, permitting, funding, and construction of active affordable multifamily projects.

Before joining WCHR he completed his master's in City and Regional Planning at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with a concentration in Housing and Community Development. He has previously worked in municipal affordable housing research and grants management. And outside of work, he loves to cook, bake bread, read fiction, hike, and play basketball, soccer, and Old School Runescape.

We're kicking off a series highlighting our newest team members at WCHR! Today we’re highlighting Fiona Walsh, who’s been interning with us as a 2026 Yale Law School Liman Summer Undergraduate Fellow. Fiona is majoring in political science and pre-law at Mount Holyoke College and will be a senior there in the fall. In her spare time, Fiona enjoys running, listening to music, and competing in mock trial.

Fiona has been helping to analyze our past lending for a lending impact study, assisting with outreach for our loan fund and learning about redeveloping vacant and distressed properties into affordable housing. Fiona has a passion for public service and social justice and has been a huge help this summer. We have loved having her on the team and we are so appreciative of her contributions here at WCHR and WCHR Securities.

We had a blast at our inaugural Family Fun Day a couple weeks ago! On June 30, we invited tenants across our family sites to a day of fun at our King Street property. We had a bouncy house, pizza, games, and the biggest hit - an ice cream truck! All the kiddos came up to us afterwards and asked when the next event would be. We saw children making new friends, and families who said they got to know their neighbors better. It was amazing to see! Thank you to all of the families who came out!
