The Kosovo Police and Kosovo Forces Soldiers worked together this past week to donate toys to students in Kosovo. It was all part of the ‘Toys of Aloha’ event, the first toy donation event representing the partnership between the Kosovo Police and KFOR Soldiers from the Hawaii Army National Guard.
“I’m so glad we could work on this project together. especially on this big day. Valentines Day is really to share the love.” Lt. Col. Aferdita Mikullovci, Kosovo Police Director
“I’m very pleased with the event and how the Kosovo Police took charge of it. When I see their smiles and their laughter with the toys in hand. It just makes me very happy that we did this,” Lt. Col. Michael Caraang, Effects Chief, MNBG-East, HAWAII ARMY NATIONAL GUARD.
While many were spending their Valentines Day with their special someone, these Kosovo Police Officers and KFOR Soldiers were spending their day with some special children. It all took place at the "Mother Theresa" Resource Center for Teaching and Counseling, where they handed out toys to the special needs students to spread love and happiness to the children. The Soldiers helped collect over 500 toys to donate and will continue to work with the Kosovo Police to deliver the toys to children across Kosovo.
“It’s a special feeling. If we can make someone smile, at least one person in a day, I think we are achieving our mission,” Lt. Col. Aferdita Mikullovci, Kosovo Police Director
“How we call it the aloha spirit. We can come together, especially for the kids. Showing good will through out the community. When the kids walk through with that smile, it made my whole day,” Lt. Col. Michael Caraang, Effects Chief, MNBG-East, Hawaii Army National Guard
