An important, and very fun, part of Charity Connect is maintaining relationships with my contacts at nonprofits so that I am aware of how they are utilizing volunteers. It was so lovely to catch up with Allison Stearns of CaringMatters a wonderful organization providing non-medical hospice and grief support. I recently matched a volunteer to Caring Matters and she is loving being part of the team. Stay tuned to hear more on her volunteer journey.

Remember when Charity Connect led a volunteer group at Red Wiggler Care Farm in May? Wendy Powell loved it so much that she has volunteered weekly since then!

Wendy enjoys working alongside people with varying abilities and backgrounds to nurture a tiny seed to harvested produce that feeds people who may not have the opportunity to obtain fresh vegetables. She finds the work very rewarding and the staff and volunteers to be "super kind; it's an all around great vibe".

I connected client and friend Jennifer Hurt to a volunteer opportunity for her book club at I Support the Girls and she invited me to join :) As is typical when volunteering at ISTG, we had a great time; chatting with each other while facilitating the distribution of menstrual products and dignity condition bras to people in need. Shariah Dunwell, Head of Operations, passionately brings volunteers into the mission and ensures that we understand the value of our service. Connecting with friends, making new ones, and helping my community makes for a great couple of hours!

PS-Thank you Dill Dinkers - Rockville, MD for collecting bras for me to donate!

Summer can be filled with fun activities, vacations, and not a lot of regular routines. You can take the time to plan ahead how to incorporate service into your fall and winter schedules.

For our 10th and final volunteer event celebrating 10 years of Charity Connect, we were lucky to have a special guest! We are grateful to Kim Oser for lending her professional expertise as we organized donations for Furnish Hope DC a local nonprofit that picks up and delivers donated furniture and household goods to Wards 7 and 8 DC residents transitioning out of homelessness, escaping domestic violence and otherwise in need of support. Thank you to Laura Heinrich for her awesome truck driving and to Tressa Bauer for all her heavy lifting and enthusiasm! Founder and Director Niki Mock was so pleased with how much we got done and the new systems Kim set up for her.
