Support the Georgetown Senior Center

Towards the end of last year, Georgetown, DC lost one of its great citizens. Little noticed by the Citizens Association in their newsletter, Virginia Luce Allen was a pioneer in the world of senior citizens. She founded the Georgetown Senior Center 30 years ago, and it survives today, even after Virginia's passing. The... seniors at the Center meet every Monday, Wednesday and Friday for lunch, a program, and exercise. It is a much needed social outlet for a lot of our city's seniors, and I ask all my friends to make a contribution in Virginia Allen's name to the Center. How? Call 202-552-9454. They will be glad to help you and answer any questions you may have. It would be a tax-deductible contribution by the way. I call on all citizens of Georgetown who truly care about their community to make the call. Here is a short video of an evening at St. John's remembering the great efforts of Virginia Allen. Thank you.
