Thanks to 10th grade students from The Potomac School for volunteering and donating last week! 10 students helped organize donations that have been coming in for hypothermia programs, cleaning and sorting, and getting a head start on our necessary Spring Cleaning!

Just in time for the 8 clients moving to housing this week! We're grateful to have had the support and partnership with The Potomac School for the past 5 years.
