Dear Reader

Twenty cover photos. Twenty catalogues. Twenty years of work across every field of endeavor. How does it begin?

In the year 2000, our founder leaves her full-time professorship to run the Harman Family Foundation and begins to wonder: how do you create equity of access for smaller nonprofits to donors of means? Soon the answer comes into focus. Create a catalogue!

Win financial support from local foundations to add to the Harmans’ leadership gift. Invite submissions from DC nonprofits with budgets under $2M; convince twenty top-notch volunteers to evaluate applications; choose the best.

Nature

The Inflation Reduction Act recently passed by Congress represents (despite its name) what former Vice President and environmental activist Al Gore called “a historic turning point” and “the single largest investment in climate solutions & environmental justice in US history.” And it couldn’t be timelier. As the US marked the second hottest summer on record (2021 was worse, but the trend isn’t a good one), environmental changes are also showing up locally in the too-early blooming season for cherry blossoms, drought on the one hand and the threat of floods on the other (note the new “High Water Mark” sculpture on the Wharf that illustrates this potential threat).

treat all nature’s gifts with respect

Health and mental health issues caused by extreme heat are especially challenging for those without access to air conditioning and other means of cooling off, and environmental hazards like air pollution are worse in DC’s predominantly Black wards, which include commuter routes like New York Avenue NE and DC 295 (driving is a major source of air pollution). Organizations that protect our natural resources, clean our rivers, care for our watersheds, advocate for green spaces, and cultivate our lands in sustainable ways (while feeding people in the process), are all doing their part to address locally what is, after all, a global challenge. And while caring for the non-human members of our society is not exactly an environmental mandate, the motivating spirit behind both is the same: treat all living things, like all of nature’s gifts, with sensitivity and respect, choosing to preserve rather than hurt or discard them. We are all the beneficiaries of this kind of respect and care.

The animals come from a variety of sources: they are strays and owner give-ups; they come from puppy mills and hoarding situations; most come from high-kill shelters in neighboring states. Volunteers make weekly trips to distant locations to pick up dogs and cats whom, because of overcrowding, shelters cannot save from euthanasia. HART also takes in dogs and cats after natural disasters as well as those who are transported thousands of miles to be rescued from dangerous circumstances and brought to safety in Northern Virginia. HART is a no-kill rescue shelter providing medical care and adoption of homeless animals into safe, loving, carefully screened homes. It assists local households and animals in its care by conducting a thorough matching process to ensure well-suited adoptions. In 2021, HART saved 789 dogs and cats and made many families feel whole.

Culture

The ACPSA (Arts and Cultural Production Satellite Account), which tracks the impact of arts and culture on the economy, illustrates a stark truth: the arts economy “shrank at nearly twice the rate of the economy as a whole” in 2019 and 2020, and the NEA reports that unemployment for artists is still twice what it was pre-pandemic. And while venues like theaters, concert halls, and museums are now open to the public, audience hesitancy along with the rise and fall and rise again of disease among performers – has created tremendous uncertainty for all involved.

the arts can help us create a sense of community

This is particularly troubling in a polarized society because the arts can help us process complex feelings, teach empathy, and create a much-needed sense of community. It is encouraging, therefore, that the community-based organizations represented in this catalogue have found a way to return to in-person work (maintaining hybrid approaches when they work best). They have opened their doors to others, created alliances to bring culturally relevant programming to kids in schools, have served returning citizens, women in recovery, unhoused children and families, wounded veterans, teens working toward a GED, members of the disability community, and seniors in assisted living. They have fostered dialogue, ignited productive debate, created connection, and helped young people break through negative self-images to tell authentic stories about their lives, build bonds of brother/sisterhood, and become catalysts for change. They are passing the pen … and the power.

washington bach consort

For 45 years, this premier Baroque choral and orchestral group has delighted audiences with historically-informed performances of 18th century music, promoting an appreciation of Bach’s music at every major venue in Greater Washington and through subscription series concerts. But just as important as performing Bach is “Giving Bach,” so a range of free or low-cost enrichment activities bring high-caliber music to new and diverse audiences. Bach to School enhances listening skills and teaches basic music theory to underserved elementary school students, while the Wunderkind Projekt aims to inspire and shape the next generation of conductors, musicians, and artists. A free Noontime Cantata Series attracts students, local business owners, individuals experiencing homelessness, and seniors alike. All told, the Consort helps 10,000 listeners appreciate the beauty of Baroque music each year. Giving Bach is for everyone.

Education

school is even more challenging than it was before

According to a research brief from Curriculum Associates, “more students are underprepared for grade-level work” than they were before the pandemic and “pre-existing inequities in learning that existed for students of color and students in lower-income communities before the pandemic are being exacerbated by the condition of education during the pandemic.” Whether we call it “learning loss” or, as many prefer, “unfinished learning,” there is no question that school is now even more challenging than it was before. Students and families (and teachers!) need more support – in reading for the youngest learners, in mathematics for all children but especially late-elementary and middle school youth. Anxiety, depression, the loss of social skills and what we might call “school skills” (how to show up, follow a schedule, raise your hand, deal with teachers and classmates, manage your time) also intensified during the pandemic, so re-learning how to “do” school, build relationships, set goals, and develop life skills is even more urgent now than it was before. (The teacher shortage across the US, as reported by The Washington Post, only adds to the problem.) Nonprofits are seeing these needs and working to address them with intensive tutoring, one-on-one mentoring, social-emotional learning, mental health programming, wraparound services like food and financial support, and new ways to engage/reengage the disengaged. As the world changes around them, one way to help students process it is to foster their active participation in their education, to encourage them to advocate on their own behalf. It’s time to listen, both to them and to the teachers and mentors, both in and out of school, on whom we depend.

Education

child and family network centers

CFNC was born when a group of mothers in public housing watched 17 of their children fail kindergarten and decided to do something about it. Annually, it serves 139 children and their families, most of whom live just slightly above the poverty line (average income for a family of four is $27,000). With an eighth grade education (at most) and English as a second language, the majority of parents face both economic and linguistic challenges. CFNC provides, at no cost, high-quality preschool education for their children, health services, and family support, right onsite in Alexandria. Workshops help parents advocate for their children in school, support education at home, and help the littlest ones transition to kindergarten ready to learn and grow. This is comprehensive care that children and families need to prepare for success, in school and in life.

Human Services

According to the DC Policy Institute, “the District has a higher level of income inequality than any state in the country, with households in the top 20 percent of income having 29 times more income than the bottom 20 percent.” Twenty-nine times. It is this difference that drives the vast majority of the work represented in this (and other) sections of the Catalogue. One in three persons faces food insecurity and the number is even higher (50% or more) for Black and Brown residents and for children (61%). As inflation increases, the problem only gets worse for those who can’t afford the food they need and for the organizations sourcing it to help them.

nonprofits have a tough road ahead

(Most of the adults surveyed by Capital Area Food Bank are employed, but wages don’t keep up with the high cost of living in the region.) Housing is problematic for the same reason: gentrification and rising prices have pushed many out of familiar neighborhoods and others onto the streets. Although official reports from the Mayor’s office show a decrease in the number of people experiencing homelessness, the number of “chronically homeless people is increasing – and burgeoning encampments are now part of the fabric of downtown”, according to The Washington Post which also, separately, reports that “2020 was the first time that gunfire killed more people 19 and younger than car accidents.” In short, the nonprofits featured in these pages have a tough road ahead: feeding families, providing housing and housing support, offering workforce training to move families out of poverty, supporting LGBTQ youth, newly arrived immigrants, and returning citizens, and finding ways to keep young people engaged and safe. It isn’t work for the faint of heart, but it is work for those who believe that racial equity and access to opportunity are human rights.

crossroads community food network

For many residents of Maryland’s Takoma/Langley Crossroads, a diverse, largely immigrant community, food that was fresh, local, healthy, and affordable was simply out of reach – until Crossroads opened its seasonal farmers market in 2007. It was the first in Maryland to accept federal nutrition benefits and first in the country to match them with tokens of equal value – a model that has been replicated at hundreds of farmers markets nationwide. Crossroads’ Healthy Eating Program shares with students and parents at local schools, community gardens, and the Crossroads Farmers Market, strategies for incorporating local produce into their daily diets. Its Microenterprise Development Program helps entrepreneurs overcome barriers as they develop food businesses and its shared-use community kitchen provides an affordable means of production. Feeding hungry people, promoting healthy eating, and supporting local farmers or new food businesses: Crossroads does it all.
