While you’re putting gifts under the tree or preparing to ring in the New Year, this week’s Designated Drinker will be offering much needed aid to individuals experiencing homelessness in DC’s Ward 1. Shane Mulhern, Executive Director of Thrive DC, understands how important it is for a community to support its own, regardless of where they are in their journey. Through Thrive DC, Shane supports individuals to achieve greater self-sufficiency through healthy meals, laundry assistance, counseling, and transitional housing – and that’s just a few of their offerings! If you’re looking for a last-minute gift, consider donating in your loved one’s name to help Thrive DC (or your own local nonprofit) continue their work into the new year.
