EVENT PROGRAM 

These girls raising money for the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria weren't the only local children out raising money for a local nonprofit at the Four Mile Run Farmers & Artisans Market on Sunday.

The boys in Community Lodgings' mentoring program were also there raising money to help sustain the program they love. We love nothing more than supporting young philanthropists!

You can pitch in and support the Community Lodgings Boys Mentoring Group by attending their BBQ Fundraiser and Cornhole Tournament on Saturday, August 25th between noon and 3:00pm. 

Volunteers are needed for the Sixth Annual Del Ray Music Festival scheduled for Saturday, June 23, 2012. The festival runs from 10am to 10pm on the Mt. Vernon Recreation Center Fields at 2701 Commonwealth Avenue and includes a diverse line up of music, food and games.

Volunteering is a geat way to be a part of this fun community event.

One City.  One Day.  One Opportunity.

What if we all gave one one day?

On Wednesday, May 2nd, our community will come together for 24 hours of unprecedented giving.

Spring2ACTion is one extraordinary day to support the organizations that make Alexandria amazing. ACT and ACTion Alexandria, in partnership with our sponsors, are offering up to $30,000 in cash and prizes to help increase fundraising efforts by participating organizations and individual fundraisers.  Real-time tracking will be displayed on the leader board at www.Spring2ACTion.org on May 2.

Be Generous.  Be Alexandria.

This Thursday, we hope everyone will come out for the final First Thursday of the season - Home Sweet Home.  While there are lots of great things planned including a fun scavenger hunt with prizes & great music from the Kate Moran Band, we would like to ask for everyone's support in helping our featured non-profit. 

With the theme Home Sweet Home, what better non-profit to recognize for all their hard work then Rebuilding Together Alexandria. 

The final numbers are in! Once again, thank you Alexandria!
