“Dear PoPville,

I was walking on Georgia Ave between Lamont and Kenyon this afternoon (Saturday) when I came across a wad of cash on the ground–turned out to be $500!!! If this is your money, glad to be connected (to confirm you are the rightful owner, I’ll ask a couple identifying questions based on the receipt that was also with the cash).

Question for the community: if no one claims the money, I’d welcome ideas for where to donate it–people, groups, causes–where 500 bucks would go a long way. Thank you!
