You are invited to the Spirit of Georgetown 2025!

On October 14, 2025, The Spirit of Georgetown annual celebration will be held in the heart of Georgetown at the historic City Tavern. This year’s event will be co-chaired by Kristin Cecchi, Amanda Klingler, Leslie Maysak and Claire Wilder. The evening will raise awareness about homelessness in Washington, D.C., and build support for Georgetown Ministry Center’s Drop-In Center, which serves chronically homeless individuals with dignity and care. This much-anticipated gathering is the perfect way to kick off the fall social season.

We are proud to honor longtime GMC volunteer Sue Massimiano, whose extraordinary commitment to our guests reflects the heart of our mission. A regular presence in our Drop-In Center, Sue once walked over during a snowstorm just to see if our team could use an extra set of hands. Her dedication embodies the compassion and reliability that our volunteers bring every day. 

Georgetown Ministry Center is the only entirely privately funded homeless services agency in the greater Georgetown area. That independence gives our team the flexibility to respond quickly and meaningfully to the evolving needs of the people we serve. We rely entirely on our hyper-local community of care to support our critical work ensuring that every guest who enters the Drop-In Center can get their needs met with dignity and compassion.

We seek lasting solutions to homelessness one person at a time.
