Georgetown Village 2025 Spring Gala

 

 

For our 2025 Spring Gala, we are delighted to honor Elizabeth Miller, a tireless supporter of the Georgetown community and a constant champion of Georgetown Village. Those of you on social media probably better know her as @MissGeorgetown on Instagram. Elizabeth is an outspoken fan of Georgetown Village and makes sure that everyone in Georgetown knows who we are and how we serve our community. She has served as a dedicated ANC Commissioner from 2019 to 2023 and chaired the ANC from 2022-2023. Many of the great things about Georgetown have her fingerprints. She is a tireless booster and an infectious “doer.”

 

Sponsorship opportunities for the Spring Gala are available starting at $1,000. Learn more here.

 

Your generous support allows us to continue serving the Georgetown community and ensuring our neighborhood is a great place to live at any age.

We hope you will join us online as Tevi Troy provides a brief overview of the 150-year history of interactions between presidents and CEOs, starting with John Rockefeller, and then moving through Lew Wasserman in Hollywood, Bill Gates and Microsoft, and then mentioning the tech moguls and the Trump administration.

“Disinformation – How to Recognize It and Respond”
Presented by: Deanna Troust

Join us online as Deanna Troust will share information, teaching us how to understand disinformation and its impact on the community. She will also discuss how to respond to disinformation and disrupt its spread. There has been a lot of news coverage about disinformation and how it affects communities. Please join us to learn more about this issue as it impacts you.

Deanna Troust is an award-winning communications strategist, writer, and founder of Truth in Common, a nonprofit that forwards human-centered, pluralistic solutions to the mis-, dis- and malinformation epidemic. She leads workshops for community members and organizations, speaks to professional and parent groups, publishes a newsletter, and lifts up communicators as critical solvers of this foundational global issue. A two-time entrepreneur, she also helps nonprofits tell their impact stories and develop equity-centered communications strategies under her consulting arm, 3 Stories Communications.

Truth in Common is informed by Deanna’s 25+-year career in social change and work in disinformation research, journalism, democracy and diversity, equity, and inclusion spaces — much as part of years-long partnerships with Mission Partners and IDEAS Generation, a multigenerational DEI consultancy.


Tuesday, April 15th – 6:00 pm

Be sure to mark your calendars for April 15 at 6 pm when Georgetown Village is excited to be hosting Rita Braver for our next Bill Plante conversations event! Rita Braver is a national correspondent for “CBS News Sunday Morning,” where she reports on everything from arts and culture to politics and foreign policy. Her assignments include a wide variety of topics, from meeting offbeat characters to discerning national trends. Rita will share personal stories about her years as a journalist and talk about the work she loves doing with CBS News Sunday Morning.

 

In recent years, Braver has also reported on national issues such as political correctness on campus and the resurgence of anti-Semitism in the United States. She has taken viewers to exhibits of famed artists such as Vermeer and Chagall and introduced viewers to contemporary artists José Parlá and Kehinde Wiley.

 

Our Bill Plante Conversations program celebrates the legacy of esteemed journalist and former GV Member and Board Member, Bill Plante. These programs offer our community the opportunity to enjoy “the art of being in conversation” with notable journalists in our Village Square.

Testimonials

Your organization has really helped us when we most needed it.
Thanks to all involved in this wonderful community resource. ~ CB

“My husband Guy had been diagnosed with Alzheimer disease and I was wondering how I would cope with this. As Guy’s condition progressed, I realized what a great help the Village was. Volunteers did grocery shopping for us, yard work, handiwork around the house, provided transportation, etc. In these circumstances, to know that the Village was a phone call away was a tremendous morale booster and helpful relief.

Then Guy passed away, peacefully, at home. For Guy we joined the Village. Now, of course, Georgetown Village is still here, for me. I feel the experience was rewarding and… priceless!”
