Donations may be forwarded to: Girl Scout Achievement Award Committee, c/o Michelle Kramer,
19 Knollwood Rd, Reading, MA 01867.
We have only received 2 donations so far. Please remember to donate so that there are enough
funds for our graduating seniors!
Girl Scout Food Drive
Leaders have expressed interest in making food collection at bridging ceremonies a
town wide event. I am happy to have been able to help as part my hunger awareness Gold
Award project. I have provided a flyer for
leaders to give out to their girls; having each girl bring a food donation to the
ceremony will create a great donation from the Reading Girl Scouts. Donations should
be delivered to the Reading Food Pantry via the back entrance of the Old South
United Methodist Church on weekdays between 10 am and 2pm. I am glad that Reading
leaders are excited about starting this new bridging tradition. Thank you for
supporting the Reading Food Pantry and my Gold Award proj
ect. Congratulations to
all the girls that are bridging. Angela McIntosh
