The 1939 Society

1939_Society_Logo

Established by the Trustees on the occasion of Hopkins House's 75th anniversary and in honor of the community educators and leaders who founded the organization on August 9, 1939, the Society is comprised of individuals who, through their long association with Hopkins House, have distinguished themselves in service to children, youth, and their families.
 
In honor of the men and women who combined their time and talents in 1939 to create and sustain Hopkins House during a period when the need was greater than government resources could shoulder alone, members of The 1939 Society provide the dollars necessary to sustain and strengthen our 21st century programs for children, youth, and their families in Northern Virginia and the greater Washington, DC metropolitan area.
