Volunteer Opportunities in D.C.

As you close in on your Christmas gift shopping, you might start to think about not only giving to loved ones this year but others less fortunate. Tons of good food can be had around the holidays, and D.C. has lots of opportunities to share that food with the needy. Check out these services that are looking for donations and stuff a little philanthropy in your stocking this holiday season.
