Georgetown Village celebrated its first major corporate sponsor and thanked Wells Fargo Bank for its $10,000 donation June 21 at the N Street home of Thomas Nigra, M.D., and his wife Jane. The Nigras’ house once belonged to Averell and Pamela Harriman, legends in the circles of Washington power. In honor of their spirit, the Harriman House lives on in their name and contains much of the previous owners’ original furnishings along with its red den, classic drawing room and pool.

Georgetown Village is a non-profit membership organization providing services and programs in the Georgetown area so older residents can live better and longer in their homes. Among its services are transportation of appointments, grocery shopping, computer and cell phone help, gardening and household help.
