“Safeway Feast of Sharing – Call for Volunteers”

By Prince Of Petworth

From an email:

“We’ve had tremendous response from the community and are very nearly there but still need volunteer table servers for Safeway Feast of Sharing on Wednesday, November 26.

WHAT:

Volunteer Registration for the 26th Annual Safeway Feast of Sharing presented by Events DC is now open, with the support of their community partners, including the Salvation Army handling volunteers. Safeway Feast of Sharing is one of the District’s most meaningful Thanksgiving traditions, created to serve a complete seated turkey dinner to thousands of our city’s residents in need, many of whom are unlikely to have one otherwise. Beyond a holiday meal, the event offers a health and community services expo, personal care bags, a coat giveaway and more.

To celebrate DC native Haili Blassingame’s debut novel, THEY ALL FALL IN LOVE AT THE END, Lost City Books is throwing a launch party themed around messy love stories. Haili, and a crew of writers she has assembled, will read excerpts from their work, but there will also be audience participation in the form of anonymously submitting messy dating stories. It’s going to be a night of laughter, of gasps, of books, of great company. Refreshments will be available. We can’t wait to see you there!
