🎒 You packed more than backpacks—you packed possibility! Whether you spread the word, hosted a collection drive, shipped supplies, or stuffed backpacks, your support made a difference for children experiencing homelessness.

We’re still seeking $50–$100 Visa, Mastercard, Target, or Walmart gift cards to help families purchase clothing, shoes, and other school essentials. 💜💚

This community event is free and open to all!

Join us on Saturday, September 19 for the fourth annual Alexandria Library Black Family Reunion. The event aims to bring neighborhoods together and help fill gaps in the documented history of Alexandria’s African American community.

We are asking current and former residents to bring yearbooks, photographs, old event flyers, or programs that can be digitized. Better still, attendees can simply sit down and be videotaped sharing a brief oral history.

Like any reunion, of course it will be a party! Attendees will enjoy a variety of food trucks, music and dancing, games for kids and adults, and Black Family Reunion t-shirts.

RSVP to receive updates. Link in bio.

I’m proud to have served as an Elections Officer for ten elections cycles.

I plan to serve in November.

How about you?⁉️

Virginia needs thousands of volunteers to make every election run smoothly.

Pollworkers are the backbone of Virginia's election process.

It starts with a smile and a hello when you arrive to vote. Poll workers welcome voters to the polling location, verify voter registration, confirm the voter's eligibility, ensure ballots are properly processed and hand out "I Voted" stickers.

It takes approximately 15,000 poll workers each year to keep the voting process safe and secure.

To join this group of dedicated public servants, sign up to be a poll worker today. See more information here >> www.vote.virginia.gov/pollworker
