November 27 was #Giving Tuesday, a global day of giving and the day we kicked off our annual appeal. You will be receiving a letter and a printed copy of our 2017 Annual Report in the mail.
Again, this year we are asking for your support to offer additional membership scholarships that remove barriers for lower-income residents to be part of the Village. We are also asking you to help cover the rent for the Village "Home" including space for our social, cultural, educational and health/wellness programs. In 2013 we received a grant that allowed us to rent space at St. Paul’s Parish for our office and programming activities. This designated funding will run out in March of 2019.
We all know the value of creating strong community ties that are the basis of our Village and the value of having a convenient and easily accessible gathering place for programs and classes. I invite you to support the Village and participate by making a gift.
To donate via our website: www.fbwevillage.org, simply click on the Donate tab and use the Annual Appeal button. Checks should be made out to Foggy Bottom West End Village, Inc. marked in the memo line for the 2108 Annual Appeal and mailed to FBWE Village, 2430 K Street NW, Washington, DC 20037.
Please note that the Village is an IRS designated 501(c)(3) charitable organization so all donations are tax-deductible to the full extent provided by law.
As always, thank you for your continuous support and generosity.

Executive Director
