WASHINGTON - What: A week’s worth of food, including a complete Thanksgiving Dinner, is being provided to 125 needy military families from all five branches of the military.
Who: The annual project is a partnership between Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling, Volunteers from JBAB, KPMG, LLC (a nationwide accounting firm) and Project Giveback.
Volunteers from KPMG, LLC and Project Giveback pack the boxes and transport them to JBAB in a large truck, which volunteers at JBAB offload and distribute to needy military families.
When: Saturday, Nov. 23, 2013, 10:30 a.m to 11:30 a.m
Where: Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling, off I-295 Exit 3 in Ward 8, Southeast D.C., in the parking area just inside the Firth-Sterling access gate. Plenty of parking is available adjacent to the event site.
Base access: When 10 minutes out, call 202-607-5606 (JBAB PAO) to be met at the gate; check your credentials and allow access. RSVPs are requested for our planning, but we understand a crew may not be assigned until the last minute, so they are not required.

Drivers of vehicles are also required to have (with them and in hard copy) - Valid driver’s license, vehicle registration and proof of insurance (must be in effect at least through the event date).
Vehicle and personal search – All vehicles and personnel accessing the base are subject to search as a condition of access. Searches are conducted at the discretion of the DOD Police.
