3 JOINT BASE ANDREWS, Md. – The 459th Air Refueling Wing recently teamed with the Denton Program to deliver donated laptops to underprivileged children in The Bahamas.
The purpose of the Denton Program is to allow U.S. based non-governmental sources to transport humanitarian aid at little or no cost to the donor while simultaneously putting extra space on U.S. military transport assets to good use.
The program is a joint effort administered by the U.S. Agency for International Development, the Department of State and the Department of Defense. The Denton Program provides transportation for approved humanitarian assistance commodities destined for approved countries like The Bahamas.
