Holiday Giving Guide


Justin and I just finished decorating our first tree together! (pic coming soon) This is a non-official guide of charities I like. Feel free to support any and all of them!

Special Olympics Maryland - After plunging 2003-2010, I will be missing the January Chesapeake Bay plunge again this year :( SOMD is a great org and my cousins have participated in their sports programs.

Girls on the Run DC - I coached the Oyster Bilingual 3rd grade team in 2009 and 2010.

National Zoo - I've been a member for years and have enjoyed discounts to ZooLights and Brew at the Zoo. Always a great place to visit and wander around!

Friendship Place - In the three years I worked here, Friendship Place grew quickly and now provides housing and supportive services to 192 formerly homeless people!

Children's Law Center - where I’m currently working on co-op. We provide direct legal services to children dealing with abuse and neglect, delinquency charges, foster care, and immigration issues. Plus, we have a brand new online donation option that I set up this week.

Hunger Site - I love this site. You perform a few quick clicks and a sponsor will donate every day. I also have a bunch of goats from here.

DC Furies, GWWRFC, Beantown - my rugby teams. The Furies are 501(c)(3). The GW girls are gearing up for a run at Nationals after last year’s trip to the sweet 16. Beantown is a perennial top team and working on getting 501(c)(3) certification.
