Carpenter’s Shelter is pleased to announce that we have been selected to be featured in the 2009/10 Catalogue for Philanthropy: Greater Washington. Carpenter’s is one of sixty-eight exceptional nonprofits chosen this year from a field of over 250 applicants. Now in its seventh year, the Catalogue selects and showcases charities with budgets below $3 million based on standards of excellence, innovation, cost-effectiveness and financial transparency. According to Barbara Harman, Executive Director of the Harman Family Foundation and President of the Catalogue for Philanthropy: Greater Washington, “The Catalogue is designed to be a showcase for high impact, DC-region non-profits, and an inviting way for individuals and families to participate in charitable giving. In the midst of the worst economic downturn we have seen in decades, supporting these organizations  which make a big difference in the lives of people throughout our community. “
