DMV Teen Is Flying Medical Supplies To Hospitals In Need

This is the positivity that needs to be spread in the world!

16-year-old TJ Kim is a sophomore at Landon School in Bethesda, MD and even though he doesn't have his drivers license yet, he has still been transporting high-demand medical supplies to rural hospitals...via plane!

Kim said that the pandemic pretty much took everything away from him...lacrosse practice, the school year...but one thing that was left in tact was his flight training. After speaking with his dad, Kim decided to create Operation SOS (Supplies Over Skies) to serve back to his community. Operation SOS delivers medical supplies to hospitals along the I-81 corridor who have expressed need.

According to AP, Operation SOS's recent mission "carried 3,000 gloves, 1,000 head covers, 500 shoe covers, 50 non-surgical masks, 20 pairs of protective eyewear and 10 concentrated bottles of hand sanitizer to Winchester to help supply a hospital in nearby Woodstock."
