521 AMOW,
In an effort to assist with the Afghan Non-combatant Evacuation Operation the 521 AMOW has linked up with The United States Transportation Command’s Denton Humanitarian Assistance Program. This program will allow us to collect and send humanitarian supplies to Al Udeid and use here at Ramstein.
We are in desperate need of diapers, formula, baby food, blankets, latex gloves, hand wipes, toilet paper, trash bags, first aid kits, and feminine hygiene supplies.
All donations must be in line with the attached Denton Program Guidelines, legally we cannot use or send any donation not in-line with the program parameters.

Expiration dates are REQUIRED on all sterile items or items involved in invasive bodily procedures at least 18 months from the date of your application. Failure to disclose medical supplies will result in removal of those items from transport and possible inability to use the Denton Program any further.
All off-the-shelf canned or prepared foods must have an expiration date at least 18 months from the date of application.
STRICKLY PROHIBITED ITEMS!!!
