Girl Scouts Team Up with Home Depot to Provide Cleaning Supply Kits
Girl Scout Troop 45139 at St. Emily School recently completed a service project for their Bronze Award. The Scouts worked with Home Depot to assemble cleaning supply kits for 100 households.
The Niles West Home Depot applied for, and received, a direct grant in the amount of $5,000 to aid the community with cleaning supplies. Home Depot employees partnered with St. Emily Girl Scouts to provide the household cleaning supplies to families in the community.
The Girl Scouts distributed the kits to St. Emily parish families at the 7:30 a.m. Mass Sunday, May 16. The Scouts then donated any additional supplies to the WINGS domestic violence shelter for women and children.
This project completes the Scouts Bronze Award, before they bridge to Cadette Girl Scouts.
