New Year 2025
Annual Planning: Empowering Communities Through Advocacy
Oysters Sand Arbor, #810 started the new year 2025 and initiated an Arbor meeting with (2) non-members as guests to discuss the annual plan activities which are being reviewed and updated.
In 2025, we focus on community engagement initiatives, including a flagship event in March aimed at addressing food insecurity among low-income elementary school students. By mobilizing volunteers and fostering collaboration, OSA strives to uplift vulnerable community members and create lasting positive impacts.
As Oysters Sand Arbor moves forward in 2025, we are determined to create an inclusive environment where every member of the community feels supported and empowered. Through these initiatives, OSA is paving the way for a brighter future.
Location: Springfield, VA
