I read "Opening Doors" [August 2003] about the 455th Expeditionary Operations Group's "Adopt-a-Village" program. Last year my father was stationed at Bagram Air Base, Afghanistan, and we held a clothed animal drive for Charikar Orphanage. I want to do another drive this year and was wondering if the program still exists. I'd like to procure in touch with the frame coordinator or anyone else involved in the program.

Editor's note: persons who want to help airmen at Bagram support the Afghan communities can delegate items to:

Adopt-a-Village Program

455th EOG/CC

APO AE 09354

Civil affairs officials say that organizers of any similar project need approximately 500 strikes of goods to deliver before they'll sanction a trip below the Adopt-a-Village program. For more information, contact Senior Master Sgt Monte Malek at malekm@baf. cjtf180.army.mil.
