Look who joined one of our Beginning-level English classes today, United States Congressman Don Beyer! He got a personal look into our #virtual classroom and the topic of #financialliteracy. Thank you Congressman Beyer for taking the time and interest in #LCNV and its learners.

Love this, Rishi!

Today: "A Day On, Not A Day Off" as Jaiden and I enjoyed volunteering for MLK Day of Service #arlingtoncares with Volunteer Arlington! We baked, decorated, and dropped off cookies with a winter and Bridges theme at Bridges to Independence. "Anyone can be great because anyone can serve" - MLK

A very happy half-century to Darell Hammond -- who has spent most of that time reclaiming childhood for each and every kid, from his founding and growing of KABOOM! to his global work with @BvLFoundation & Urban95. I bet his next half-century shines even brighter.

I can’t tell you how fulfilling it is to see your former students teach your current ones. Excited to be part of Sarina and Cathy’s Gold Award projects. Students are learning a lot about personal finance and STEAM. #engineeringdesignprocess #innovation #proudteacher

When you see your name on #LightsOnBroadway in Times Square🤩! Thank you Morgan Stanley for being our longtime partner and helping us build amazing places for kids to play together, feel a sense of belonging, and thrive. kaboom.org/partners/meet-… #MSGivesback
