Right now we have many Tinker members impacted by the storm who need help, and many, many teammates who want to volunteer to help them. We would like to help marry those two communities up.

The Airman and Family Readiness Center's Emergency Family Assistance Center (EFAC) is now set up to take calls from Tinker members who have needs and those who want to volunteer to help. Please get the word out that if a Tinker member impacted by the storm would like help cleaning up debris, for example, at their home, they can call the EFAC and register their needs.

Likewise, for those members who want to volunteer to help, have them call the EFAC and the EFAC will help organize work parties targeted to meet those in need.

The EFAC contact numbers are 739-2747, 736-3813, or 736-3847 - and they can find more information on the Tinker AFB Facebook page or websites.

Again, thanks again for the awesome teamwork and support - Team Tinker will get through this together.
