Spotlight on … Making Connections

On Saturday, December 3, National Student Clearinghouse employees (and their guests) attended our Annual Dinner at the Westfields Marriott Washington Dulles.


After passed hors d'oeuvres, attendees enjoyed a buffet that included vegan ravioli, filet of Mahi Mahi, grilled beef mignonettes, roasted butternut squash soup, chicken biryani, vegetable fried rice, assorted holiday-themed desserts and more!


Congratulations to the lucky winners in the random drawing for these fabulous prizes:

  • Echo Show 15, Full HD 15.6" Smart Display with Alexa
  • Roomba
  • Beats Headphones 
  • Solo Stove
  • Apple Watch Series 7
  • Two 50-Inch UHD Smart TVs


Many people hit the dance floor and merriment filled the air as coworkers/friends mingled during the holiday celebration.


"It was wonderful to see everyone who attended the Annual Dinner. It was powerful and rewarding to watch teammates meet for the first time and longtime colleagues reconnect and celebrate this wonderful time of year,” said our President & CEO Rick Torres. Click here to see the full photo gallery.
