Self-described lovely nonprofit in White Flint area seeks Development Assistant on temp-to-hire basis – $35k-$40k

Now, a programming note: we'll be skipping Monday.  See you w/ Sunday re-runs, and again on Tuesday.

So, what's your plan for the forthcoming Valentine's/Presidents' Day weekend?  We're hoping to check out new Belgian beer-centric The Sovereign in Georgetown or the also freshly-hatched Hank's Pasta Bar in Old Town; and if you have a yearning for Thai, we had a pretty great lunch at Soi 38 yesterday.  Whatever you come up with, including just-staying-the-hell-inside-'cause-it's-too-damn-cold, your favoritepublic affairs jobs resource hopes it goes as great as last night did for the electrifying #8.
