Members of the 亚色影库 community participated in the 2019 Angels' Wings program, a community program created to provide Christmas gifts for needy families and children, elderly individuals, and physically or mentally challenged people in the Indiana area.
The program, entirely voluntary, offers an opportunity for employees, students, or offices to choose a family or individual identified by the Angels' Wings program and to provide requested gifts for these families or individuals for Christmas.
