The city of Alexandria postponed a planned candlelight vigil to honor local victims of domestic violence just hours after announcing the event.
The Alexandria Domestic Violence Program announced Wednesday that the Silent Witness Candlelight Vigil and Memorial Program, planned for Oct. 2 from 6 to 8:30 p.m. at Market Square outside City Hall, has been postponed. A new date and time will be announced once confirmed.
Residents at The Landing, a senior living community at 2620 Main Line Blvd. in Alexandria, recently came together for a good cause.
Residents and families organized a toiletry drive to help the Alexandria Domestic Violence Program. The drive wrapped up last week and saw participation from all corners of the community. Residents from Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Memory Care units pitched in to gather essential hygiene items for individuals and families facing crisis situations.
