What has made this year frustrating for Caroline Kwon is that almost everything seems to be out of her control.

Whether it was her junior lacrosse season being canceled, college courses moving online at the Naval Academy, or the safety of friends and family in relation to the coronavirus — she couldn’t control any of it.

This holiday season, however, a project that helped hundreds of kids in the Annapolis area was in her control. Kwon, a first class midshipmen and captain on the Navy women’s lacrosse team, spearheaded 6th Company’s annual Giving Tree holiday gift drive that led to 500 kids in the Annapolis area receiving presents.
