Potomac Community Village to Host Prospective Member Get-Together

Potomac Community Village (PCV), with a mission of empowering older Potomac residents to age in place in their existing homes, strengthen existing social connections and build new ones, is hosting a New and Prospective Member Get-Together on Monday, May 9, at 3 p.m., at a private home on Chapel Road, Potomac.

The event will offer an opportunity for those who want to know more about PCV, have been thinking about joining or for members who want to introduce friends to the local non-profit to chat over coffee, tea and other goodies. For questions, directions, and to RSVP, by Thursday, May 5 please, 240-221-1370 or info@PotomacCommunityVillage.org.

PCV also announced a new membership policy. Anyone who joins now has their membership last for 14 months instead of 12, ending on June 30, 2017, at no additional cost.

Those interested in joining PCV using this special program may do so by submitting a membership form, or may contact PCV at 240-221-1370 for more information.

PCV has two membership categories: Standard Membership, open only to those who live within the 20854 zip code, and Associate, open only to those who live outside of 20854.

• Standard members, with a rate of $100 per individual and $150 per household per membership year, are able to receive volunteer services, such as transportation, computer help and help with simple household chores, in addition to member-only programs, such as member discounts, access to PCV’s Suggested Contractor list, member-only social activities and Home Safety Inspections.
• Associate Membership, which was introduced at the request of community residents who live outside of 20854, is $50 for an individual, $75 for a household. It does not include volunteer services, but does include all other member benefits. Here's a link to an Associate Membership form.

Potomac Community Village is a non-profit all-volunteer network of friends and neighbors that empowers older Potomac residents to age in place in their existing homes and remain independent by creating social connections and providing needed services. We welcome volunteers of all ages to provide assistance with transportation, errands, electronic devices, friendly phone calls and visits, occasional pet care and simple home repairs.
