Rebuilding La Plata After the Storm

Jean Kline passes out food to other volunteers off Charles Street.

Jean Kline of Waldorf  (center) has been volunteering since the day after the storm hit. 

"We've got chocolate pudding, small waters, big waters," she said to officers in La Plata, doling out pieces of her stash.

She volunteers because "you gotta help others," she said. "Some day, I may need this help. 

"If I can get this food out, I'll do it," she yelled as she drove off to the next group of hungry volunteers.

Volunteers from Andrews Air Force Base and the Greater Waldorf Jaycee Foundation were stationed under a tent filled with food, helping with its distribution. Donated golf carts were used to get the food out to all the volunteers in town.
