Bright Beginnings Beautification Day
When: Saturday, November 16, 10:00am-3:00pm
Where: Church of the Holy Communion Episcopal Church, 3640 Martin Luther King Jr. Ave. SEDC
Volunteers are needed on Saturday, November 16 for Kiwanis Club/Bright Beginnings Beautification Day! We have an opportunity to spruce up a facility used by our largest service project partner. The event is planned to take place at their MLK site which is located just inside the Church of the Holy Communion Episcopal Church at 3640 Martin Luther King Jr. Ave., Southeast, Washington, DC from 10am to 3pm. It's the same location as the playground build we helped with last year.
Twenty Bright Beginnings families and staff members are looking forward to meeting Kiwanians in service. Lunch will be served and it will be a great occasion to connect with families we are trying to help in the fight against homelessness.
Our main mission on the 16th will be painting. They have three classrooms, two hallways and one stairwell that are in desperate need of a little TLC by way of a new coat of paint. In this season of Thanksgiving, this would be a great way to give back. Please feel free to bring a prospective member to see our service in action!

Food & Friends "Slice of Life" sale
When: Now though November 26
This Thanksgiving season, the Kiwanis Club of Washington, D.C. will be supporting the annual pie sales, "Slice of Life" for Food & Friends. A local gourmet pie company makes the pies for this fundraiser and the cost ranges from $28 to $45. Club members can sign up to sell pies, or you can choose to purchase pies from the club in general or an individual team member in the club. Pies will be available for pickup at locations across the D.C. area on Tuesday, November 26. You can also support this initiative by purchasing a pie for a Food and Friends client.
Food & Friends provides meals, groceries and nutrition counseling to people living with life-challenging illnesses. We have supported Food & Friends in many ways over the years, through delivering groceries and helping prepare food. This is another way that we can support Food and Friends and this project is being spear headed by Serena Bell and April Gassler. Please contact Serena Bell if you have any questions.
Additional information will be communicated regarding possible hands-on volunteering with pie distribution day on Tuesday, November 26th.
Volunteer at Gifts for the Homeless
When: Saturday, December 7
Where: 2300 N Street NW, DC
The annual Gifts for the Homeless clothing drive provides much-needed clothing for men, women, and children at over 70 DC-area shelters. DCYP will join hundreds of other volunteers for a fun clothing-sorting party where we'll help sort and bag clothing donations. The event is always a favorite project of DCYP members! Learn more about GFTH here. (http://gfth.org/)
If you have clothing you would like to donate, feel free to bring it to the project!
