Oakton, VA (August 12, 2025)— HopeLink Behavioral Health is receiving a grant totaling $150,000 over the next three years from the KPMG U.S. Foundation. The grant will support HopeLink, a regional nonprofit in Northern Virginia with national reach, which works to help individuals and families facing various behavioral health challenges or crisis.
“We are grateful for the KPMG U.S. Foundation’s investment in our work. Their generosity will help more individuals and families facing mental health challenges or in crisis in our region to receive the support and services they need and to remain safe. This grant expands on our relationship which includes KPMG employee volunteers helping on projects that make our clients’ lives easier,” explained Joseph Getch, CEO, HopeLink.
This grant is part of a nationwide initiative from the KPMG U.S. Foundation, awarding more than $2M this summer in multi-year grants to organizations focused on increasing education and mental well-being, and creating vibrant and healthy communities for all. The collaboration with HopeLink aligns with the KPMG U.S. Foundation’s commitment to supporting the communities where the firm’s people live and work.
“HopeLink is doing vital work right here in Northern Virginia to support individuals and families facing mental health challenges. We’re proud to come together to collaborate with them to increase access to services and lead to healthier, more resilient communities.” said Patrick Ryan, KPMG Washington DC Office Managing Partner.
Earlier this year, HopeLink hosted a volunteer team from KPMG during its Community Impact Day. Volunteers landscaped HopeLink’s Fairfax Recovery Academy, making it a beautiful place for HopeLink clients to thrive. The Recovery Academy provides psychosocial rehabilitation services to adults living with serious mental illness. The program offers skills training and support to help clients work toward their recovery goals and connect with others with similar experiences.
HopeLink serves more than 1,800 individuals and families through its wellness and recovery programs, helping people navigate the mental health system, avoid psychiatric hospitalization, find jobs, strengthen independent living skills, and maintain housing.
