THE ODYSSEY
WASHINGTON, D.C.
Association of Legal Administrators
he Capital Chapter Foundation’s March 22 event proved to be the most successful in the Chapter’s history. A record $51,000 was raised for Emmaus Services
for the Aging and the Toni K. Allen scholarship fund. This year’s theme of
“Putting on the Ritz” provided inspiration for the evening, and luxury and glamour
were evident in everything from the black, white, and silver decorations and top
hat confetti to the glittering array of jewelry on display for the silent auction.
Chapter partners quickly snapped up tables for the event and invited members
to attend as their guests, for a total of 300 people partying down the Potomac
aboard the Odyssey. A warm, breezy, perfect spring evening provided a lovely setting. Good food, good company, and most importantly, a good cause made for a
festive evening!

15TH Annual Fundraiser Proceeds Recipients
Toni K. Allen Scholarship Fund
For over twenty years, the ALA Capital Chapter
Foundation has awarded an annual scholarship
to an outstanding senior enrolled in a local
high school, who has an interest in pursuing a
business or law degree. Students are judged
on scholastic achievements, extracurricular
activities, community involvement as a volunteer, a written essay describing the student’s
personal and career goals, and personal interviews with ALA Capital Chapter members. In
2003, the Foundation renamed its scholarship
in memory of Toni K. Allen. Toni was one of
the original members of the Foundation. She
was also a Past President of the Chapter and
made many contributions to ALA on the local,
regional and national level. Toni was an advocate for higher education so it is fitting that
this scholarship is named in her honor.
Emmaus Services for the Aging
Improving the Lives of Seniors Since 1978
Dear Friends,
On behalf of the seniors, staff and volunteers
connected with Emmaus Services for the
Aging, I would like to express a sincere
appreciation for the relationship that exists
with the Capital Chapter of the Association of
Legal Administrators. The level of your commitment not only allows us to impact the lives
of seniors, but helps us to remain a vital entity that meets the needs of the aging population.
Eighty percent of the seniors that we serve
are at or well below the poverty threshold set
by the Department of Health and Human
Services. Many of our seniors suffer from disabilities that limit their mobility, and have
limited friends or family who are available to
provide the necessary support. As a result,
these seniors often remain isolated and
removed from the services they need to stay
active and independent.
Emmaus reaches out to build trust with these
seniors, providing programs and services to
meet the full range of their needs. We help
seniors in times of crisis or in times that celebrate the joys of life. Our goal is not just to
help seniors survive, it is to help seniors
thrive — to help them age with dignity and
quality of life regardless of their financial
means.
ALA Capital Chapter • CAPITALCONNECTION

We consider the Capital Chapter of the
Association of Legal Administrators significant partners that assist us in having a
tremendous impact in the lives of our seniors.
Your members have provided aid where it was
most needed, from expanding and beautifying our Feast for All Market to organizing a
food drive to stock the market’s shelves. The
support that we receive from your annual
fundraiser will assist Emmaus in connecting
seniors across the District of Columbia to the
necessary resources. Our partnership will help
seniors meet their primary needs, live healthier lives, and avoid isolation by forming
meaningful friendships with other seniors and
volunteers.
I am grateful that you have chosen Emmaus
Services for the Aging as a Chapter Charity,
and I am heartened by your support and your
sincere commitment to improving the lives of
elderly residents in Washington, D.C. Our
founder Dr. Arthur S. Flemming used to say,
“An older person deserves a dream, not just a
memory.” Thank you for your assistance in
turning dreams into reality.
Sincerely,
Rev. Joseph K. Williams, Sr., M.Div
Executive Director/Mission Manager
