Manas helps give 8 children's hearts a beating chance

Master Sgt. Ken Hart teaches children the art of bubble blowing during a March 4 visit to the Bishkek Institute of Cardiology, known as the Children's Heart Hospital, in Kyrgyzstan. Airmen with the Manas Air Base Outreach Society spent some of their off-duty time with the young patients in the heart ward. During this visit, MABOS donated approximately $4,500 to the hospital to pay for eight heart surgeries in addition to the 129 others funded since 2003. Sergeant Hart is assigned to the 376th Expeditionary Force Support Squadron and is deployed from the 27th Special Operations Force Support Squadron at Cannon Air Force Base, N.M. He is originally from Augusta, Ga. (U.S. Air Force photo/Maj. Damien Pickart)
