Please be mindful of your surroundings. Keep your belongings close. And maybe don’t hand your phone to strangers. 😂📱

That’s all we have to say about that.

Anyway, the Community Walk & Fun Run is October 3 at Anacostia Park. Come walk, run, and show up for women rebuilding their lives after homelessness.

This cocktail-style event is an amazing opportunity to learn more about our mission. At the event, you can support our programs by participating in the silent auction, wine & spirits pull, and more.

We are incredibly grateful to Taft for their continued support of Calvary Women's Services. Earlier this year, their team helped create 100 welcome kits for women in our programs, and we’re thrilled to continue that partnership through Cheers!

What an incredible summer! Thank you all for making summer so special for the women we serve and for showing up for Calvary Women's Services in so many ways. We’re carrying that momentum into an exciting fall, and we can’t wait to share more of what’s ahead. This week, we will be sharing Sarai's story to give you a glimpse into the life of a woman who has found stability and is building her future in one of our permanent housing programs

And as we look ahead, there’s still time to help us close the fiscal year strong. Our fiscal year ends September 30, and your gift today helps ensure women have the housing, support, and resources they need to keep moving forward: https://www.classy.org/give/517188 #!/donation/checkout

Today, Calvary Women’s Services is 43!

We started in 1983 as a temporary overnight shelter for women. Four decades later, we’re still here, still growing, and still doing what we’ve always believed in: making sure women in Washington, DC have a safe place to begin again.

So, for our 43rd birthday, we invite you to give $43 for 43 years of Calvary.

Your gift helps provide the essentials that make a new beginning possible for women. Give $43 for 43 years: https://www.classy.org/give/517188 #!/donation/checkout

Tomorrow, Calvary Women’s Services turns 43! 🎉

For 43 years, women in Washington, DC have walked through our doors looking for a safe place to begin again. We’ll be celebrating the history, the women, and the community that have made all of these years possible.

Be sure to follow along tomorrow for some special 43rd birthday content as we look back at where Calvary started, how far we’ve come, and the women at the heart of this work.

We did it. 🎉

Thanks to this incredible community, we reached our Summer of New Beginnings goal, and now more women have the opportunity to begin again.

Every donation, every Giving Catalog purchase, every share, and every person who helped spread the word played a part in making this possible.

To everyone who donated, shopped our Giving Catalog, shared our campaign, or helped spread the word this summer: thank you. You helped make this summer one to remember.

And while the Summer of New Beginnings Challenge may be over, the need doesn’t end here. Our fiscal year ends September 30, and there is still time to help us close the year strong.
