During the month of March, the first grade Brownie Troop #139 from Queen of the Rosary School in Elk Grove Village held a 2-week Pet Care Drive at the school and church. The troop began by visiting an animal hospital in the area where the Brownies viewed animals that needed medical attention. Their hearts grew even bigger after having an AHF volunteer come to explain why cats and dogs may be abandoned and how AHF helps these animals with medical issues and prepares them for adoption. Afterwards the girls decorated boxes and posters for the drive. They collected more than 500 pet care items for the Almost Home Foundation to help abandoned cats and dogs. This completes their project to earn a Girl Scout Try-It for "Caring and Sharing". We are so proud of the girls and are so grateful for the overwhelming response we received.
Almost Home Foundation is very thankful that for the help from these Brownies! |
