“Dear PoPville,
Looking for volunteer opportunities over the Thanksgiving weekend in the DMV for those of us unable to visit family this year. Any suggestions?”
and
“My company is working remotely across the DMV, but there’s a desire for my team to rally behind a coat drive or any sort of way to give back virtually and safely. Looking for options – to support those who would feel comfortable giving from home (money donations, mailing items, etc) and those willing to drop-off or contribute in person. Appreciate any recommendations you might have, thank you!”
and
“Was wondering if anyone had a local charity that they can recommend for taking care of a family’s Christmas / Hanukkah / Kwanzaa gifts (or any other holiday I missed)?”

“Dear PoPville,
Do you know a good resource for finding a tastefully furnished apartment suitable for a busy professional? Dogs need to be okay. A weight limit is fine, the little one is only 16lbs. Mostly interested in AdMo, Mt. Pleasant, Shaw, Petworth, Columbia Heights.
Any quick tips would be hugely appreciated!”

The Sherman Ave. testing site opened at 3:00 yesterday (Monday) and by the time I got there around 3:30, the line had stretched around probably 4 small blocks. All told, I had to wait about 90 minutes for a test. The line was comparable in length (possibly even longer) to what we saw when testing first became available (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
As the holiday season is quickly approaching and, unfortunately, COVID-19 cases are once again surging, I was wondering how I could support our amazing local healthcare workers and first responders during such a difficult time. Back in March and April there were various GoFundMes or restaurant partnerships to help donate meals to hospital divisions, etc – is there anything like that going on now? A lot of the links I found through researching had expired. Advice on how we can help make the next two months easier on them would be greatly appreciated.”
