Coats donated at the 459 ARW will be given to So Others Might Eat, a local charity located at 71 O Street NW in Washington D.C and will be distributed from 0700-0900, Dec. 14. "I helped start this program about six years ago and have been doing this annually from October to December because I like helping people out," said Master Sgt. Timothy Boykin, 459th ARW Services Flight. Last year, Tech. Sgt. Shativia Fuller and Senior Airman Cherell Gerald-Lonon, both of the 459th Services Flight, took part in donating as well as helping distribute coats, clothing and food to families in need, he said. People can make a difference in the lives of others by sharing time, effort and belongings. If you are interested in volunteer opportunities or have any questions, please contact Master Sgt. Boykin at 240-857-2775.
