Volunteer Opportunities and Events
WHAT: Focuses on affordable housing, public safety, and environmental justice issues through membership in WIN, a multi-faith, multi-racial grassroots advocacy organization.
We support WIN with our time, talent, and treasure. This engagement enriches all of us: those at St. Mark’s, those in the larger DC religious/spiritual community, and most important those whom WIN actions affect. WIN’s organizing starts with listening to our neighbors to learn what people care about AND then WIN builds relationships to work on tackling issues. WIN supports residents across the city by advocating for:
- Affordable Housing & Homeownership
- Environmental Justice – Utility Reform & Healthy Homes
- Economic Justice & Public Safety
- DC Revenue

We’re working with WIN to
- ensure our elected officials care about the needs of the underserved,
- push the city to be more accountable for reducing fossil fuel dependence in buildings,
- organize for public safety,
- improve use of public DC lands, and
- expand affordable housing opportunities.
More about WIN itself: on Facebook and on the web.

We Got Here by Showing Up
St. Mark’s work in WIN is coordinated by Abby Attia, Kit Arrington, Kathryn Blanco, Edna Boone, Josie Jordan.
Many St. Mark’s parishioners have joined the parish WIN email list to stay informed about ways to take action and many have stepped into “boots on the ground” participation and turned out as “butts in seats” – showing up when asked because numbers matter – online and in-person!
