You’ve got to hand it to Michelle Obama’s staff: they seem to have a good grasp of which local D.C. nonprofits are deserving of a little First Lady face time. Obama, along with Vice Presidential spouse Jill Biden, went down to the Capital Area Food Bank on Wednesday to help pass out bagged meals for low-income kids in the area. Previously, the first lady has volunteered at Miriam’s Kitchen and Mary’s Center.
If we were advising the first lady on which local groups to reach out to next, we’d recommend two of our favorite service-oriented nonprofits, D.C. Central Kitchen and Bread for the City.
