The generosity of our donors is helping to brighten the season for the women, children and families residing in our housing programs! Very special thanks to donor R. Kravit who donated 22 tickets for our program residents to visit “ZooLights,” the National Zoo’s annual winter celebration, and to The Lynch Family for donating a holiday tree to our Huruma Place emergency housing program.

Residents are already making plans to visit ZooLights, and many of our young residents spent last Saturday afternoon handcrafting ornaments, decorating the tree, and drawing festive pictures to hang alongside the tree. We think you’ll agree that the tree is just beautiful:

Thanks again to our donors! If you are interested in making a holiday gift donation to DASH residents, we are accepting donations through December 23rd. We are very much in need of wrapping paper, tape, gift tags and gift bags. Call Rena at 202-462-3274 to donate.
