Not Your Typical Starbucks RAK – K Praske

January 4, 2017

Joe and I met last Monday afternoon at the Starbucks on Route 7 near the Container Store to discuss plans for ARG’s Big Dig.  I noticed two carts full of bags and clothes near a table and then saw the lady who owned them come back to her table and make an instant meal with … More Not Your Typical Starbucks RAK – K Praske

Back to School in a Taxi – K Praske

January 4, 2017

Just before Labor Day, I was out to dinner in DC with my boyfriend and a RAK opportunity presented itself on the way back to Arlington in a taxi.  We were talking to the driver about his kids and where he lived.  He lives in Rockville (where we both went to High School) and has … More Back to School in a Taxi – K Praske

Lost and Found – C Markert

January 3, 2017

My first RAK was more about the right thing to do, so with my remaining $50 I wanted to do something a little more on the fun side. That was a little more difficult than I anticipated. I was running out of time and was worried that I may not be able to complete the … More Lost and Found – C Markert

Fresh Air and Sunshine – C Markert

January 3, 2017

It was lovely September morning on my first day of my “staycation” in Winchester and my wife and I decided to go out to Burger King for breakfast before heading out to run our planned errands for the day. While I was waiting for my food, I noticed an older gentleman, with what looked like … More Fresh Air and Sunshine – C Markert

Coffee & Friends . . . The Perfect Blend – M Vines

January 3, 2017

Back before the deli across the street closed, I got hit with a desire to do something nice for the lady that sits in the lobby of the Hilton HQ bldg.  She always makes eye contact with me and smiles when I say hello.  So I bought her a cup of coffee, a brownie for … More Coffee & Friends . . .

Bless this Food – M Vines

January 3, 2017

I had dinner at a place in Tyson’s with TierPoint when they were visiting ARG.  It is one of those very nice steakhouses that I simply don’t go to unless someone else is footing the bill.  I didn’t stay for the whole engagement, but asked if my dinner could be put in a to-go container.  … More Bless this Food – M Vines

I Like to Move It, Move It – M Vines

January 3, 2017

I am so sad I didn’t get a picture of the two men who came to my neighbor’s house back in August, to load up appliances for a family that was purchasing the set.  It was so hot that day, and I remember feeling rather frustrated with my friend who had asked if I would … More I Like to Move It, Move It – M Vines

A Family Affair – M Vines

January 3, 2017

Abby & her friend Maura wanted to help the homeless folks in our area and weren’t sure how they could best address the needs.  I decided that this would be a fantastic place to use some of our RAK money, so we went to Target and got to work, filling 10 bags with several practical … More A Family Affair – M Vines

Helping a Future Vet – S Murphy

January 3, 2017

My son likes to play airsoft – essentially playing war with low speed BB guns. Over the last several years, he has become good friends with someone several years older from his high school. This friend just graduated this year and was admitted to one of the national military academies. Over the Thanksgiving break, my … More Helping a Future Vet – S Murphy
