Annual Thanksgiving Eve Dinner
We invite you to join us as we reach out to share Thanksgiving with the poor and the homeless each year. Last year we served over 300 people at this event. Every year we strive to create an atmosphere that is both lovely and loving. Despite the large crowds, we always have plenty for seconds and enough for people to take home to enjoy on Thanksgiving Day. It's as though God multiplies the hams and the turkeys and all the scrumptious side dishes and desserts that caring people bring to share. |

Annual Christmas Party for Children in Need
StreetLight celebrates Christmas by giving to children in need. In an effort to share the Christmas spirit, StreetLight has partnered with “Toys for Tots” as a distributing agency to provide Christmas presents for children in need. We do not just pass out presents, though. We throw a party! Our party includes a full holiday buffet dinner, with lots of favorite dishes for kids, and a Christmas presentation for the children. At the end of the evening, we call out every child's name individually to receive their gifts. They each receive two toys provided by “Toys for Tots” and an additional gift of new clothing provided by StreetLight. This event always develops into a beautiful and heartwarming evening.
Participating children need to be pre-registered and present at the party to receive their gifts. Many volunteers are needed to help at this event. If you would like to volunteer or sponsor a child by donating new clothing , call the StreetLight office at 703/491-2288, ext. 224 or email rpowers@streetlightcom.org |

“New Beginnings” Annual Fundraiser Dinner
Mark Your Calendars!
Plans are underway for our Annual Fundraiser Dinner and Silent Auction which is scheduled for Friday, April 23, at 6:15pm, at the Hilton in Springfield Virginia.
Our primary objective for this year's fundraiser dinner is to raise money to expand our ministry and to obtain additional transitional and permanent supportive housing units for single adult men and women. Our goal is to obtain two houses this spring, allowing qualified applicants to move in just in time to avoid the summer heat. We invite you to partner with us in our campaign this year to raise money to increase services and to provide a “New Beginning” for our homeless neighbors.
