Thank you to the wonderful volunteers from The World Bank! These volunteers served breakfast to 90 individuals, providing them with a nutritious start to their day. At our food pantry, the volunteers served 150 people. Food insecurity is a pressing issue in Washington, D.C, affecting thousands of families and individuals. Support from volunteers like these helps us to provide essential services to those in need. Thank you World Bank! #thankyou #volunteers #dc #dmv #thrivedc #volunteeropportunities #homelessness #homelessnessawareness

About us
Thrive DC, an independent, 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, works to prevent and end homelessness by providing vulnerable individuals with a comprehensive range of services to help stabilize their lives. Thrive DC serves approximately 2,000 homeless and vulnerable individuals in the Washington Metro area annually. We welcome anyone in need providing services to men and women of all ages, backgrounds, races and ethnicity. The individuals who come through our doors often face complex barriers to a more stable life. They are hungry and sick, frustrated and confused, and lonely and hopeless. Many are diagnosed with mental illness, and some struggle with substance abuse. Others have been victims of domestic violence or sexual assault. A majority live with chronic health problems – often without regular access to crucial care. For these individuals, Thrive DC provides a low barrier, vitally needed safety net. Thrive DC is often their last hope in the face of food insecurity, extreme poverty and homelessness and the first step towards independence and self-sufficiency.

Thank you Project Pink Tax!! Your generosity and commitment to our community is admirable. Thank you for all that you do!
This past Friday our Physical Donations Coordinator, Norah Madan, dropped off over 6,500 menstrual products to our friends at Thrive DC who are working daily to support individuals facing homelessness with rehabilitation services. Thrive DC serves ~100 clients daily with emergency services like hot meals, personal hygiene resources, laundry, counseling, and feminine hygiene supplies. We are thrilled to begin our partnership with Thrive DC, ensuring access to free, high-quality menstrual products for those who cannot afford them monthly. Thank you to our supporters for allowing us to do this amazing work! ❤️ If you would like to support our next drop-off, please consider making a gift here: https://lnkd.in/eZD6tNYb 💕
