Volunteers at the Iraqi and American Friendship Project Logistics Center work during their off time to pack backpacks with school supplies as part of the Human Unity Begins project. The HUB initiative, sponsored by 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing (Forward), Marine Aviation Logistics Squadron and various religious congregations in the U.S., plans to pack 1,000 backpacks for distribution to Iraqi school children. "Our goal is to create a program that is sustainable and can be carried on for a long time," said Riley, an Orange Calif. native. "We're starting small, with the friendship center, in order to see what kind of need there is for school supplies in the local area. From there, we may open this project up to more sponsors and expand our efforts."
