Re: [Downtown Dharma Listserve] Volunteer in 2015

Scott, thanks for getting the ball rolling with this email.  That sounds like a good options.  

I'm also interested in coordinating a group to volunteer with the Anacostia Watershed Society's Earth Day river clean-up on April 25, 9-12 am.  If folks are interested in participating, go ahead and mark your calendars now.  I'll send out more information later.

Happy New Year to all,  Amy

Hi All,

I hope everyone is off to a great New Year! 

I'd like to thank everyone from the Downtown Dharma listserv who came out to our latest volunteer day with St. Stephen's Loaves and Fishes and those of you who showed up a few Fridays ago in the cold to hold candles on 16th Street to sustain the dialogue about the excessive use of force in African American communities.

In looking forward to the New Year, it's been suggested that we consider other volunteer opportunities. So I'd like to see if people have ideas or suggestions for where we might volunteer. One place I will look into is Hands On Dc, an all-volunteer, nonprofit organization that organizes projects to improve the physical condition of Washington, DC public schools. 

I'll try to identify a couple of places in the next few weeks and get feedback from those of you who might be interested in participating.

Namaste,

Scott
