“We love to visit the Arboretum several times a year, as each season offers a different perspective, and each time we come, we stop to check out the bonsai. It’s absolutely mind-blowing to think about how these trees are trained and how old they are. I am good with plants, but this is a whole other level. There are trees older than the United States, and many were gifts from the Japanese government, including one that survived the bombing of Hiroshima.
You must swing through if you are in the park. Come early or come on a weekday if you can. The trees are small, so if you want to spend a moment with each, it's best if there isn’t a crowd.”
“The people that I talked with were polite and efficient. I sent an email and the next day they were on the phone setting up the donation. The tow truck arrived the following day within the time frame I was given. Everything was handled very well.”
“We took a Spanish 2 class to visit the MCI and had the best time! Our guide gave us a step by step tour of the historical building and added plenty of age-appropriate trivia and information. The murals are incredible and the art exhibit upstairs was just amazing. My students loved the greenhouse room and music room the most.”
“Casey trees continues to do a good job helping Re-Tree DC with their newsletter, public education, tree planting projects, and periodic tree giveaways for DC residents. .”
“I took the 12-week Spanish Foreigner course with Michelle and it was a great experience! She's very knowledgeable, organized, and clear, as well as being very helpful and understanding towards student needs and questions. The class materials were comprehensive and extremely helpful to reference during and between classes.”
“Wonderful, friendly, helpful staff! I had a question about my bike and they helped me figure out the issue free of charge.
Brought my bike in later for some maintenence, they did a great job but the turn around was 2 weeks. Which was a little longer than their estimate. But overall a great place!”
“A great place to relax ad unwind. This is a real astute Student Center that is well taken care of.
It has plenty of seating arrangements.
Marvin Center stands out amongst many other Student Centers at other universities.”
“Fantastic sunny Saturday midafternoon *Trunk or Treat* event to promote and bless Agape & Charity! ?????✝️Mr. Ernest, Ms. Louise, Ms. Tina (in-charge!), and Ms. Tammy all led a great & Godly crew to serve the “coolest kids” and make The Master Carpenter known to all SE DC! ❤️{We must always, always, always offer up a humble thanks to The DC Dream Center… for readily & clearly there is indeed a Godly Awakening underway!}**Amen! ?????✝️— ? ????**”
“The Temple of Praise Church is a great place to come to worship and to get that Word that will fill you up for the entire week. So Blessed to have Awesome men of God preaching and teaching. Thank you Presiding Prelate Bishop Glen A. Staples and Senior Pastor Walter L. Staples for all that you pour into us every Sunday. God bless you both.”
“Tucked away in a charming neighborhood, Meridian House feels like a secret garden oasis. The historic mansion itself is a photographer's dream, boasting elegant interiors with rich details that transport you to another era. But the real showstopper is the expansive garden. Lush greenery, meticulously maintained landscaping, and a variety of charming nooks and crannies create a backdrop that's both versatile and breathtaking. My couple and I were spoilt for choice when it came to finding picture-perfect spots!
This engagement session at Meridian House has only solidified my love for this venue. The atmosphere, combined with the professional and friendly staff, makes it an ideal location for any couple seeking an iconic engagement session location. IG @daniellerealphotography”

“It's very welcoming and clean. The boys met other children at "the house" who traveled here for their own medical journeys. They got to bond with other kids. It really does brighten parents up when you see the outlook of our children playing and talking about life. Changes my perspective as a human being.”
“April the 24th was my first time going there I was able to go through the line a couple times getting fruit and vegetables and I will go again the Lord willing ??”
“This is such a cool space hiding under Dupont Circle! Came here for the Common Ground / Common Future exhibit where a bunch of local photographers had works on display. I look forward to seeing more shows here! Worth it just to drop in a see the street art around the perimeter.”
“A great organisation that cares. One that helped me see America in a different light.
As someone who has had the privilege of beginning their volunteering journey some 13 years ago and blessed with opportunities along the way to lead programmes, I believe the hallmarks of any decent programme include (1) being client-first and never volunteer-first; (2) conducting a well thought-out orientation where volunteers learn about how the programme came about, its ethos, the guidelines the organisation puts in place to protect its clients; (3) having strict rules and expectations of its volunteers so as to protect clients; and (4) understanding the power of words — not referring to humans as, say, beneficiaries but as guests or clients.
Miriam's ticked all the boxes for me.
I particularly like how volunteer manager Martha Wolf highlighted the power of making sure the homeless have a choice, even if it's something as small as whether you want cranberry juice or orange. Learnt a lot from the volunteer orientation. I love the 6am to 8.30am breakfast session & I am grateful for the privilege of getting to start my day bright and early on such a happy note & getting to chat with people ^_^
Thank you for the opportunities & I hope one day we do end the plague of chronic homelessness because no one is ever less deserving than another of safety, shelter, dignity and love.”
“We stayed here with our 10th grade class during our trip to DC. The space is beautiful, and right down the street from the Capitol. Such easy access to all of the landmarks we were visiting. The space was comfortable and exciting for our rural students :) Kay gave us an orientation and made us feel welcomed. Thank you!”
“This building is the home of the esteemed National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine. Members are advisors to government and top scientists in their disciplines. The building is not a public museum. It sits across from the Mall and south of the Department of State. Not really a tourist spot, although there is a wonderful statue of Albert Einstein out front yhat offers a photo opportunity for visitors.”

“We adopted Bogo in 2019 from the same shelter and welcomed Cooper (formerly Woody) yesterday. They are happily sharing play time and nap time. We love Human Rescue Alliance and are so thankful for the work they do.”
“We had lunch at the Executive Room for 4 ppl. The room was elegant and quiet. Not too many people at lunch at that time. They had buffet lunch, the food was excellent, but not too much choices with the high price. I love their Hors d'oeuvres, fresh baked bread, cheese, assortment of fruit, etc.”
“This is a very respectful understated memorial with a really nice fountain and a bunch of inspirational quotes. It’s a lot of open space but it’s fairly peaceful and there’s also a lot of pretty Ginkgo trees.”
“We hosted an event yesterday at the beautiful Hill Center on their entire 2nd floor, and can't tell you how amazing it was. The venue is beautiful. The staff is incredible: positive, helpful willing to make your event perfect and easy, from set up, to complicated audio, to clean up; special call out to Liz, Leroy, and James. I hope I can host another event there!”

“I am grateful to have been a part of The Bethany’s Women Center, located on the 1st floor of N Street Village. I was welcomed with open arms by the staff who are professional, compassionate and committed to insuring all women who walk through their front doors, no matter the road they have traveled, are treated with dignity and respect. The program provides case management support, as well; offer a safe haven for women during the day where they can get breakfast and lunch, participate in different activities and group discussions. During select days, toiletries, showers and washing of laundry is accessible, also; healthcare services with their partner provider. I am ever so thankful that this place exists and because of the path that I have traveled and the people that I have encountered to get here, the reward for me has been far greater than I could ever imagine and it’s because of God’s Favor and Mercy and the women of N Street Village - Bethany’s Women Center I have stepped into a new life and residency, Thank you. ??”
“An incredible community doing incredible work. Please volunteer and support as you can. They were a lifeline for me when I moved to DC and was unexpectedly diagnosed with cancer within months.”
“I had the pleasure of collaborating with Schuyler on a complex case, and I was consistently impressed by his clinical thoughtfulness and communication. He was a reliable, supportive partner throughout the process; responsive, collaborative, and clearly invested in our client's wellbeing. I would not hesitate to refer to him and look forward to working together again.”
