From DCJCC:
“On Christmas Day, 1,000 volunteers will spread out across the Washington area to prepare food for the homeless, visit senior citizens, decorate and host Christmas parties at shelters, serve meals to those in need, donate blood, provide needed maintenance and repair at community centers, wrap gifts, and help children experience the magic of the holiday season. For the 27th year, the Washington DCJCC is convening volunteers of all ages for planned Christmas Day service activities through D25.
“D25 is a chance for everyone – whether children, teens, college students, adults, or families or groups of friends to find a way that speaks to them to share the holiday spirit with others in the community,” said Erica Steen, Director of Community Engagement at the DCJCC, who is in her eighth year of directing the event. “What better way to be thankful for what we have and to consider how we can better the lives of our neighbors than in coming together in service on such a special day?”
Details on D25 follow. A list of projects can be found at the Washington DCJCC’s D25 homepage. Volunteer opportunities include on-site activities at the DCJCC as well as at more than 60 social service agencies throughout Washington and the Maryland and Virginia suburbs. Most activities are two to four hours.”

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.
You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.
It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
