2010 Annual Report
Special Thanks to our 2011 Mayor’s Annual Senior Holiday Celebration Partner Sponsor, AARP

We would like to thank our presenting sponsors of our 2011 Annual Awards & Fundraiser Event for their generous support of the community and Family Matters:


We appreciate your continued support!
Ways to Give
Today’s economic instability worries all of us, but no one feels the pinch more than our clients. Many of our families are working without a safety net, just one job loss or medical emergency away from disaster. Social service agencies across the Washington area are confronting funding losses. City agencies are besieged by the double threat of increased demands and reduced funds.
At Family Matters of Greater Washington, we are grateful to have friends like you who will help us to meet the challenges of increased demand and ever shrinking resources. Please give as generously as you can to assist the members of our extended family who need us now more than ever. We value our donors rights and privacy and follow the “Donor Bill of Rights” established by the Association of Fundraising Professionals and other fundraising organizations to ensure that philanthropy merits the respect and trust of the general public.
At your direction, your generous financial support may be allocated for specific programs and services or as a general-funding gift, so that we may serve the highest priority.
Your contribution is fully tax-deductible and there are many ways to give including:
1. Cash
Gifts of cash are accepted in any form including check, money order or credit card. Cash gifts may be sent to Family Matters of Greater Washington 1509 16th St., NW Washington, DC 20036, made online or telephoned in to the Development Department at 202-289-1510. Click here to donate now!
