Martha's Table needs Ward 7 & 8 volunteers

Hey Fam!
Looking to give back in the community? Martha's Table has moved to Ward 8 and they are in need of some amazing Ward 7 & Ward 8 volunteers to help support several east of the river programs such as their food markets, Martha's Outfitters in Anacostia and their educational programs. I know we have people in our own community who want to give back to support our own community.  You can volunteer for a few hours, a few days, a few times a year, etc. You can volunteer alone or as part of a group. You are needed! 

Volunteers can be as young as 12 years old which is really nice for local students, this is a great way to get that DCPS community service credit! I'm including information below from the Martha's Table website along with a link to signUp. Please share! 
 

Volunteers make it happen! Sign up to support Martha's Table programs east of the river!
