A Special Thank You to a Supporter

Many times requests are numerous, and thank yous rare. We at The House don’t want to be part of that statistic.

Because of your generosity, your gift enables us to show and verbalize that dreams of The House are widely shared and supported by people and companies like yourself. THANK YOU!

Some of our appointments are producing results. No doubt, we know that what we share is important. It’s urgent. We hope that every individual we meet chooses to become a team player in our collaborative networking for The House programs and financial operational needs.

The House is structured as a solution to a specific problem and it defines the problem as our society’s inability to keep our youngsters safe and positively engaged outside of the time they spend in school. A big plus of The House is that it’s an alternative to student loitering and petty theft at Potomac Mills, and to the latch-key students, along with their parents, looking for something between the hours of 2pm and 6pm. At this time, The House offers:

• After-school programs Monday through Friday, 2:30 p.m. until 6 p.m., to enhance areas of our student’s academic, recreational, cultural and life skills.
• Open House Friday and Saturday evenings, 7 p.m. until 10 p.m. for all youth of our community to use the facility.

Here's a huge endorsement: The Superintendent’s office for Prince William County Schools has endorsed The House-another marketing tool we can use showing the degree of support we have received. We are pleased to communicate that at the in-service days two weeks ago, The House was introduced to faculty and staff. Our volunteer staff has been to all middle and high schools with our materials seeking students that will benefit from our program.

The Chamber of Commerce has introduced us. The Executive Editor of the Potomac News wrote a phenomenal piece about The House on November 13, 2005, opening many more doors of opportunity. The word is getting around!

We just believe the profile of our young people will become radically different because of your vested interest and those yet to partner with us.

Warmest regards,
