 What do you get when you connect a Brit with a diplomacy  background and an American with an events background? British Events  D.C.!  We know there are others in the DMV who love British culture as  much as we do.  Whether you are a Royal watcher, Britbox subscriber,  Shakespeare fan, Potterhead or footy fanatic you will love our people  and our events.  Join us for the Habitat for Humanity Polo Classic at Congressional Polo Grounds where we will host a tented hospitality area complete with high tea fare and libations. Then it is off to the races at the International Gold Cup where we will host a tailgate on Members Hill complete with Madd Hatter theme. 

Stockings from Karen is a non-profit organization that gives the gift of self-esteem to teen foster girls through annual delivery of Christmas stockings filled with toiletries. Often when a child arrives in foster care, all they have are the clothes on their backs. Our stockings are stuffed with staples teen girls need like deodorant, toothbrush/ toothpaste, lotion and self esteem boosters like makeup and hair accessories.  We work with Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) programs  to deliver the stockings via their volunteer network. The first year we delivered 40 stockings to the DC CASA and today we deliver 400 stockings annually to CASA programs all over DC, VA and MD. 

Are you looking for a place to regroup and reinvigorate yourself? Want to share ideas in a safe and nurturing environment?  The National Women's Collaborative (NWC) is an online community founded in response to the Coronavirus Pandemic. The founders sought to tap into the underutilized skills and ideas of women and in return give them the resources and support they need to get a job, make a transition, renew their purpose or simply get back in the mix of professional life. The organization started with 3 people and now has 3000 in its fold. NWC hosts a monthly Zoom and an annual conference.
