For instance, right now, the hotel is holding the Fresh & Clean Attire Drive, which collects items like blazers and office shoes to help local job seekers dress for interviews. Check it out, and if you're interested, drop your own gently used professional attire off by April 30.

April 8: A sight to see in the DMV |
Between the institute operating the James Webb telescope and all of the NASA facilities dotting the landscape, the Baltimore-DC corridor's reputation as a major outer space research and innovation hub is unmatched.

Our DC reporter Kaela Roeder broke down what you need to know, with some commentary from experts at NASA, the Smithsonian and UMD. ➡️ Learn how to (safely) watch the solar eclipse near home in the report here. |
