WHAT IS AN ANC?
The Advisory Neighborhood Commissions (ANCs) are locally elected bodies which shall advise the Council of the District of Columbia, the Mayor and each executive agency, the Government of the District of Columbia, all independent agencies, boards and commissions with respect to all proposed matters of District of Columbia governmental policy including but not limited to decisions regarding planning, streets, recreation, social service programs, education, health, safety, and sanitation which affect the Commission area. In each of these areas, the intent of the ANC legislation is to ensure input from an advisory board that is made up of the residents of the neighborhoods that are directly affected by government action. The ANCs are the body of government with the closest official ties to the citizens in a neighborhood. Commissioners serve without compensation. See PL 93-198 and DCL 1-21, as amended.

TODAY: WHUR's Howard University's Alternative Spring Break "Helping Hands"
Dear Community -
Please stop Howard University radio, WHUR 96.3 FM (Georgia Avenue & Bryant Street, NW), between 6am-6pm today to donate (cash/check/credit card) to HU students' "Helping Hands," Alternative Spring Break program. Information below. You will see a HU's student bucket brigades at corners along Georgia and Bryant.
Howard University Embarks on 20 years of Service for Alternative Spring Break
Each year, hundreds of Howard University students give up vacations and trips home to honor the University's motto of "truth and service" during the Alternative Spring Break program. This year, more than 400 students will tackle volunteer more than 16,000 hours in Baltimore, Chicago, Detroit, Memphis, New Orleans, Washington D.C. as well as Haiti to tackle societal issues including gun control, homelessness and illiteracy.
Since 1994, the ASB program has been committed to fostering a spirit of service and leadership among Howard University students. The program is coordinated through the Office of the Dean of the Chapel with significant institutional support from the Office of the President coupled with the help of generous donations from Howard alumni, students, staff, faculty and residents from Washington, Maryland and Virginia.
This year, volunteers will return to Baltimore and Memphis to tackle gang violence and public health, respectively. They will also combat illiteracy in Detroit, homelessness and HIV/AIDS prevention in DC and gun violence in Chicago. Law Students will continue post-Katrina work with the Office of the Public Defender.
In an effort to raise $50,000 for ASB, Howard University radio, WHUR 96.3 FM, will host "Helping Hands," a 12-hour radiothon on Sunday, March 2, from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.
All donations to this year's ASB will help build on the ongoing legacy of service to humanity that Howard University is known for. For more information on how to support students serving the nation, please click here.
