⚽ What an incredible day at Casa Cup 2026! ⚽

Our field was filled with energy, teamwork, laughter, and a whole lot of soccer as students, families, volunteers, and community partners came together for a day of fun and friendly competition.

We are so proud of every player who stepped onto the field and gave their best effort throughout the tournament. Events like Casa Cup remind us of the power of community and the joy that comes from bringing people together.

A special thank you to D.C. United for helping create such a memorable experience for our students and families. Your presence, encouragement, and dedication made a lasting impact on everyone involved.

We are also incredibly grateful to the Alexandria Soccer Association and 703 Warriors for joining us and helping make this event possible. Your partnership and support continue to create meaningful opportunities for the young people in our community.

Thank you to all of our volunteers, families, and supporters who helped make Casa Cup a success. We can't wait for next year!

✨ Our Fun Friday during VBS was filled with joy, laughter, and special moments reminding us that Jesus is the Light of the World! 💡💛

Through games, activities, worship, and time together, our kids learned that His light shines in every heart and every season of life. Thank you to Cherrydale Baptist Church for making this week so special for our students! 🌟

There are few things sweeter than watching children express love and gratitude for their moms 💐

This week, our Kids Club students created special canvases filled with encouraging words, drawings, and lots of love for the amazing women in their lives.

Happy Mother’s Day from all of us at Casa Chirilagua 💛

Hay pocas cosas más bonitas que ver a los niños expresar amor y gratitud hacia sus mamás 💐

Esta semana, nuestros estudiantes de Kids Club crearon canvases especiales llenos de palabras de ánimo, dibujos y mucho amor para las increíbles mujeres en sus vidas.

¡Feliz Día de las Madres de parte de toda la familia de Casa Chirilagua! 💛

Sometimes the most meaningful parts of a celebration aren’t planned at all. At our Spring2ACTion Eve Event at Gustave, one of those moments came through a Casa mentor and mentee sharing a win during music bingo.

But what stood out wasn’t just the prize. It was the relationship behind it.

Kristen shared that mentoring Angie has become the best part of her week. Every Tuesday, she looks forward to the time they spend together. What started with a simple connection has grown into something much deeper.

She’s watched Angie step into high school with confidence, balancing strong grades, friendships, and a genuine care for others. “She’s one of the most impressive people I know,” Kristen added.

Moments like that don’t just happen. They’re built—week by week, conversation by conversation.

And they matter more than you might think.

Have you ever considered becoming a mentor? We’d love to share more—send us a DM!

Stories of hope from our community

In one of the hardest moments of her life, she wasn’t alone.

Our team showed up.

They stayed.

They walked with her through it all.
“It felt like my own family was there.”

This is what showing up looks like.
This is what your support makes possible.

Today is 💛
