VIDEO: DUMFRIES, Va. (7News) — 7News was there on Tuesday when a group of girls at Potomac Middle School in Dumfries finalized the wind turbines they were building as part of an after-school program on green energy. The seven-week-long program, “Girl Power—Intro to Green Energy”, was put together by a nonprofit group called Pink Space Theory with the support of a $7,500 grant from Dominion Energy.

On behalf of the Pink Space Theory Team, I want to thank everyone for supporting us this year. Despite this year's challenges, our community of volunteers, corporations, and local businesses came together to help us impact the lives of others. Amy Leigh Mercree's quote, "Kindness can transform someone's dark moment with a blaze of light. You'll never know how much your caring matters. Make a difference for another today." sums up what unwavering sacrifice can do for others during challenging times.
