Partnerships. NSP helps less fortunate individuals locate employment, affordable housing and healthcare.
THE SCENE
Twenty-one year-old Thomas Healy gave a moving testimonial, about moving to D.C. four years ago and ending up homeless."The stress of living on the bottom rung of life's ladder has a profound eff ect on your internal motivation," said Thomas. "You
lose the ability to focus on anything except the next meal and the next place to sleep." With NSP's help he secured a job, an
apartment and is on his way to college - at Columbia University, no less. Marne Levine chaired the evening, which more than
doubled last years eff orts by raising over $100,000.

The host committee included Bob Woodward, Ann and
Vernon Jordan, Catherine and Wayne Reynolds, Emily Lenzner, Evan Ryan and Tony Blinken and Jane Cafritz.
