Girl Scout Troop 44054 crafts blankets and toiletry bags for those in need on May 19, 2019

STM had a fantastic time with Girl Scout Troop 44054 on Sunday, May 19, 2019. Troop 44054 decorated and filled 20 reusable toiletry bags and made 3 large tied fleece blankets for the underserved families at The National Center for Children and Families. The scouts collected and sorted toiletries including toothbrushes, toothpastes, soap/body washes, shampoos/conditioners, toilet paper, deodorants, and body lotions before filling their decorated toiletry bags with them. They kindly donated the remainder of their collection to us for future use. Our thanks to Strathmore Children’s Chorus for their generous donation of socks that were also included in these toiletry bags. Kudos to Troop 44054 and Troop leader Djahna Akinyemi for their continued kindness to those in need and for their generous donation that will be used to support our Books for Bedtime literacy program. #kindness #literacy
