Holiday Projects – Thank You

Saturday, January 14th, 2012

A big thanks to DWC members who contributed towards the two DWC holiday projects and made them so successful.

We are now receiving many thank-you notes from various schools and students around the area who received the toys you donated through the 2011  Fairfax County Fire and Rescue Toy Drive.  You helped fill Captain Willie Smith’s truck with your toys and gift certificates.

And on January 3rd, I delivered your grocery store gift cards and checks for distribution to needy families to Chris Garris, Food Programs Manager for Our Daily Bread.  We not only met our goal of $2,000, we exceeded it by $255, which was greatly appreciated!

Thank you all for participating.  Your generosity every year is appreciated by so many in our community.

Jane Barker, DWC Chair

Let Your Flag Wave on September 11th

Wednesday, September 7th, 2011
In recognition of the losses and sacrifices made on and following 9/11 the DWC encourages everyone to display an American flag outside every home, apartment, office, and store in the area on September 11 and for the entire week until September 17.
On the tenth anniversary of this national tragedy, as part of the National Day of Service and Remembrance, we would like to honor those who lost their lives and remember their family members who have lived with this grief every day since 9/11/ 01.  We also wish to honor those who are serving in the military on our behalf at this very moment at home and abroad.
Please fly your flag proudly and remember that freedom is never free!
