Description

In honor of 9/11, AmeriCorps Seniors is encouraging their programs across the nation to host a community service activity. Through feedback from the members of the Soldier & Family Readiness Group (SFRG), we learned that although supplies are frequently donated, many times the recipients of these supplies lack bags/backpacks to put them in. Therefore, the AmeriCorps Seniors RSVP program at Lifespan will be hosting a backpack drive Monday, September 11th.

 If you are curious, here are the current SFRG units stationed at the National Guard Station on Patriot Way.

  • Co. A, 174th Infantry; 209th Field Artillery
  • 642nd Aviation Support Battalion
  • Headquarters & Headquarters Company, 642nd Aviation Support Battalion
  • Co. F, 1st Battalion, 169th General Support Aviation Battalion (Air Ambulance)
  • Detachment 2, Headquarters and Headquarters Company 3-126th Aviation (TOC1)
  • Detachment 1, Co. B, 3-126th Aviation (Heavy Lift)
  • Detachment 2, Co. D, 3-126th Aviation (Maintenance)
  • Detachment 2, Co. E, 3-126th Aviation (Support)
  • Detachment 1 105th Military Police Company
