The Tinker Spouses Club, in coordination with base leadership, is collecting donations for individuals and families displaced by Hurricane Michael.
Tens of thousands - including many military servicemembers and their families - have been affected by the historic storm in Florida's panhandle. The devastation is widespread, and entire towns remain without power, water, or basic services.
Many who evacuated have nothing left but the few items they took with them before the storm.
That's where YOU come in. The Tinker Spouses' Group, in coordination with base leadership and coordinated efforts in the Florida Panhandle, will be collecting items for those affected.
Here are the details:
Items should be placed in a standard size shoe box or plastic container.
All items must be delivered to the Tinker Thrift Shop at Bldg 6002, near the Auto Hobby Shop, Gerrity Fitness Center, and AFRC. You can also contact coordinating Tinker Spouse Club members to coordinate drop off.
Our outreach cannot accept cash donations at this time.
We will be collecting the following items to fill shoe boxes. These items have been specifically requested by displaced families and would be greatly appreciated:
Blank notebooks
Blank notepads
Coloring books
Pens & pencils
Crayons
Colored pencils

Small toys
Travel games
