What a wonderful idea! Brava, girls!Today we received a wonderful visit from representatives of Montclair Girl Scout Troop 20273! Pictured here are Angela Isaacs, her daughter Zoe Isaacs, Zoe Smith and her mom Traci Smith. Their troop collected and donated over 100 bags filled with groceries for our clients (that's over 2,400 items!!)![]()
![]()
Their premise was very creative: they gave out bags with an Advent calendar attached to each and asked the recipients to add one food item each day. They picked up all the bags on Christmas Eve and delivered them here today! We always say that getting young people involved in service like this ensures the future of helping people in need. THANK YOU Troop 20273 for helping us to help others!!
