Dear Friend,

For those of you who are not local to the Washington, DC area, we held a special celebration in honor of our 25th Anniversary.  If I could sum up the evening in one word, I would say...heartfelt.  

It was an absolute joy to see so many friends from different seasons of our ministry come together to recognize the good work that has been done through the years.  And just like our Savings Groups, it reminds me of the power of community and what can be accomplished when like minded people join together in faith.  

During the event, I was deeply grateful to announce that a generous donor gave a $175,000 gift to be used as a match challenge!  Every gift given will double our ability to serve more people in need. If you can help us meet this match, please click on this link. 

Lastly, I wanted to share a short video of blessing and thanks that highlights some of our incredible program participants through the years.  I hope it is a deep encouragement to all of you, near and far, for the part you have played in our ministry.

With gratitude,
