Girl Scouts Help Veterans

Girl Scouts Help Veterans

It’s always good to see our money at work in the community, it’s even better when we see young people using it to help veterans. We were lucky enough to be able to donate $974 from our employee driven vending machine charity to a wonderful Girl Scout Troop. Troop 6292 raised money to make care packets for patients at the North Little Rock Veterans Administration Hospital. Recently they prepared those packets and were able to get them to the hospital just in time for Veterans Day.

Check out this article from the Arkansas Catholic on these girls serving their community.
