Chris Baker Peterson Air Force Assistance FUnd installation project officer Peterson Air Force Assistance Fund installation project officer -- Peterson's 2009 AFAF Campaign officially ended May 1 with the wing surpassing its goal of $80,667 by more than $9,000. In total, more than 800 Peterson, civilians and retirees contributed $82,061.97 to the campaign. Approximately $11,000 was contributed to the Air Force Village; more than $45,000 was contributed to the Air Force Aid Society; almost $15,000 went to the Air Force Enlisted Village; and roughly $9,300 went to the General and Mrs. Curtis E. Lemay foundation. Another $430 in cash was undesignated. "This is a particularly notable achievement as the campaign occurred simultaneously with our operational readiness inspection and unit compliance inspection," said Col. Wayne Monteith, 21st Space wing vice-commander. "Once again, we've shown how the Air Force takes care of its own." The overall Air Force CCAF goal was $5.83 million; currently $6.6 million has been raised. Although the campaign is officially over, Peterson Airmen still wishing to donate may contact their unit project officer. For members who donated through the payroll deduction plan, the withdrawal should begin June 1.
