RestON – Opportunity Neighborhoods come to Reston
Opportunity Neighborhood Reston (RestON) exists to champion community priorities that relate to improving the lives of children, youth and their families, creating brighter futures full of opportunity for every child and youth in Reston. Opportunity Neighborhoods is a community-wide effort where residents, schools, Fairfax County government, and community organizations work together with faith communities to bring positive change to a community. You can help! Check out the ways to give and get involved!

With over 1 million square feet of retail space on three levels, 16 movie screens, and over 300 restaurants and retailers, 2 office buildings, a luxury apartment complex and the Hyatt Hotel, Tysons Corner Center is much more than a shopping destination. They are also a dedicated business member of the community with deep roots to the area and pledge to the populations they serve to give back, do more and be the best.

Over the years, Tysons, which is owned by Macerich Properties, has generously lent its facilities and resources to many local nonprofits and local government to help them better serve their constituents. From lending space on the plaza to the likes of Public Safety Day and Nonprofit Outreach, to collecting Shoes4Kids for FCPS schools, to hosting a 5K run for Food for Others, and donating to Stuff the Bus in Fairfax County, Tysons Corner demonstrates its commitment to Fairfax and the region-at-large with its generosity. (and yes great shopping and entertainment, too!)

THANKs to Tysons Corner Center and Macerich for being a great community partner!
