On Sunday, July 26, please give generously to help A Wider Circle (AWC) realize its vision of a world without poverty.
Its mission is to advance equity in the Washington, DC region by fostering the exchange of goods, services, and connections from neighbor to neighbor and engaging in advocacy to address the root causes of poverty.
Originally launched to provide beds to families in need, AWC continues to provide beds, dressers, dining sets, and other furniture at no cost. It also offers professional development and career advancement opportunities, and has created long-term neighborhood partnerships through its Ward 8 hub. For families facing barriers to self-sufficiency, AWC's Partnership to Independence program provides three to five years of intensive support, including professional development and financial management skills. In addition to this array of direct support services, AWC partners with individuals and neighborhoods to advocate for affordable housing and a living wage. Learn how AWC's work is "driven by love," here in this video: https://youtu.be/bEdRh07ZWsQ
