We need your help spreading our message.

The DC Council will be making big budget decisions over the next month, which could have an impact on our funding and the vital services we offer at Capitol Hill Group Ministry.

The good thing is, you can help us tell our story to the people making the decisions. We want them to hear how much their constituents care about ending homelessness in the District.

For the next few weeks, we will be doing a campaign on social media with the Hashtag #MyDCBudget. We will share the voices of those touched by homelessness and ask our government to fund programs to help thousands of homeless men, women, and children move into safe and stable homes.

We need help retweeting this tweet that just went out.

We also would like you to tweet and share with your followers to help get #MyDCBudget Trending.

Here are some sample tweets you can use:

• The people you pass on the street are mothers, fathers, daughters and sons. They matter. They need our help. #MyDCBudget

• I believe we can end Chronic Homelessness, but it’s a team effort, and we need YOUR support! #MyDCBudget

Click for a template that you can print out and customize, then take a picture of yourself with it and tweet it out using the hashtag, #MyDCBudget.

This will be going on for the next few weeks so please follow along on Twitter and Facebook, and help us raise awareness.

Thank you for your continued support of Capitol Hill Group Ministry. I know that we can make a difference, and help increase funding for homeless services, including those provided by Capitol Hill Group Ministry.

Sincerely,

Karen E. Cunningham

Executive Director
Capitol Hill Group Ministry
