We recently held a new member orientation at Peet’s Coffee Shop in Springfield. Four new members and five “seasoned” members gathered to enjoy a morning cup of coffee, learn a little more about each other, and find out what Assistance League is all about. New members were able to get information and ask questions about our many programs and opportunities for supporting children in Northern Virginia public schools. The enthusiasm and positive energy were obvious, and we are all looking forward to many good things to come.
