While DCT3 is primarily a multisport club formed to promote
fitness, education, and training for multisport athletic events, we also
believe in having a strong sense of community. This means being actively
engaged in the community in which we live and train, and not exclusively by
donating money to a select nonprofit. As a club/team, we will be organizing 3-5
hands-on volunteer events during 2013, partnering with the following local
nonprofits:
Special Olympics of Washington, DC (EIN
52-0889518)
Mission: Special Olympics provides year-round sports training and athletic competition
in a variety of Olympic-type sports for children and adults with intellectual
disabilities, giving them continuing opportunities to develop physical fitness,
demonstrate courage, experience joy, and participate in a sharing of gifts,
skills, and friendship with their families, other Special Olympics athletes,
and the community.
Martha’s Table (EIN 52-1186071)
Mission: Martha’s Table transforms lives by engaging the community in
developing sustainable solutions to poverty. We meet core needs of our clients
with education, nutrition, clothing, and family support programs that prepare
young people, from infancy through adulthood, for a promising future.
Rock Creek Conservancy (EIN 20-3874333)
Mission: Rock Creek Conservancy works to promote a healthy and sustainable Rock
Creek Watershed through conservation, education and restoration.
These DCT3-organized volunteer events will be designed in such a way that
anyone can participate, no large amount of training will be necessary to
participate, and no financial contribution will be required (i.e., we are
donating our time and skills in lieu of money). In addition to meeting the
intended purpose of giving back to our community, these events will be social
in nature, providing an opportunity for team-building and socializing with
teammates in a non-athletic setting.
Hope everyone can stop by on Saturday, November 3rd @ 4pm to learn more about
the club, the races planned, and volunteer opportunities in 2013!
Cheers!
Judah
