April is National Volunteer Month! 

We are grateful for all the volunteers who have participated in our community service events over the past few years. While we are still unable to coordinate in-person events, we are encouraging CCW members to pledge to volunteer for 5 hours during the month of April by registering for our National Volunteer Month event.

Volunteering means different things to different people. Not sure where to start? Here are some ideas and organizations we like: 

• Help animals find forever homes - Lost Dog & Cat Rescue Foundation

• Protect the environment and get outside - Rock Creek Conservancy

• Support public health - PRS behavioral health nonprofit

• Mentor youth - Black Girls Code

• Connect with older adults - AARP 

• Donate goods (books, clothes, etc.) - N Street Village

• Prep meals for those in need - So Others Might Eat

• Spread joy through art - Cards for Hospitalized Kids

• Babysit for a friend or family member

• Coach a local sports league

• Join your local neighborhood group

• Serve on a board

• Donate $$ to any cause you care about!
