Over 100 ICDC members attended our kick-off event despite the busy holiday schedule. The Happy Hour was held at the 18th St. Lounge, compared by The Washington Post to "somebody's unspeakably cool apartment where there's always a party going on." ICDC members relaxed on comfortable couches over their favorite libation while meeting and conversing with internationally-minded professionals from around the world. We were also entertained by the tunes spun by the musical minds behind The Thievery Corporation.

ICDC cares about the world in which we live. All proceeds ($366) from the Happy Hour were donated to the World Vision program for the benefit of Liberian refugees & displaced families.
