We hope you are all doing well! We've missed our fellow volunteers, philanthropic partners, and fun projects that serve the community. With warm weather and loosening restrictions on the horizon, we are excited to announce our upcoming events. We hope to see you at one - or all - of them!
Virtual Meeting
When: Tuesday, April 13, 7:00-8:00PM
Where: Zoom
We are excited to have Robinne Gray from the Anacostia Watershed Society, join us to provide more background on the organization and prepare our team for Earth Day clean up on April 24th. The Anacostia Watershed Society was founded in 1989 by a small group of concerned individuals who decided that the environmental needs of the Anacostia River and its watershed communities required serious attention.
Over the past 20 years, our staff and programming efforts have expanded significantly to encompass efforts in environmental education, stewardship, and recreation, as well as engaging the community through public affairs. The vision is to make the Anacostia River and its tributaries swimmable and fishable, in keeping with the Clean Water Act, for the health and enjoyment of everyone in the community. Community involvement is critical to achieving this vision and AWS seeks win-win solutions through strong partnerships and coalitions, with all parts of the community, government, and other stakeholders.
Even if you can't attend the cleanup, we hope you'll join us to learn more about this great organization serving our community.

We are SOOOOO excited for an in-person service project! Join us for an Earth Day event at the Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens! This incredible national park site showcases historic ponds with spectacular water lilies and lotus, tidal marsh and habitat for abundant wildlife. Join us as we protect, restore and promote this jewel along the Anacostia River in Washington, DC. Learn more about Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens and about our event organizers, the Anacostia Watershed Society.
The event will run rain or shine—please dress accordingly and plan to work outside. We will abide by covid guidelines so all volunteers must wear a mask and register in advance. Group sizes are limited so we must track attendee headcount. The nearest Metro station is Deanwood on the orange line.
