Thanks to everyone who came along to volunteer on Saturday December 15th. With your help we delivered to 55 households throughout DC. Special thanks to our friends Tony and co. from the University of the District of Columbia’s (UDC) Student Outreach and Leadership Development group who came along to help.
Also a big thanks to Jakob and everyone at Dogtopia in Bethesda for the food drive they had for us. We received a whole bunch of food from them and delivered all of it as part of Saturday’s program. Thank you guys!
One of our volunteers Amy Sisk, a journalism major at the University of Montana recently wrote a great article about our program and the impact we have on our clients. Amy was one of our regulars while she was in DC. She interviewed Kathy and myself as well as Mary Davis one of our clients who we know well . You can read her full article on her blog here.
Finally our parent orgainzation AMURT released a new 2012/2013 Gift Catalog recently. This contains a wealth of gifts that you can give to your family and friends that will really make a difference for not too much money at all. Things like a 3 Month Sponsorship for an HIV/AIDS Child for just $60 or One Semester Sponsorship for Ugandan Child.
Happy Holidays from all of us at Food for All DC
Cheers
Graeme
