From the transcript

My husband talked with the manager of that store. He said, "We don't know what to do because they are stealing. So what we can do?" I guess if you can, yeah, I guess like right now what we're talking about may be beyond the scope of what the commission under the name of Anchorage Sister Cities Commission can do, but I think maybe a, um, a good next step is to maybe we can like, like as a commission and as commissioners, we can sign up as a group for the various volunteering opportunities in town to support the existing efforts to provide relief and support for those experiencing homelessness. I know the, um, the Anchorage Coalition to End Homelessness, they do, uh, you can do like a packing party, which basically you can pack hygiene and wellness items into that, like a pack for the coalition to help hand out to folks who need it. Clothesline happens every single year, and they always need help with organizing the donated items like clothes and shoes and whatnot.
