Girl Scout Boost Bags for Children in Need
March 2023
After learning more about children around the state in need of everyday items, Cadette Girl Scout Troop 74 of Brunswick felt compelled to make a difference.
With the help of donations from local community members and insight from the Department of Children and Family Services, they came up with the idea to purchase and fill 50 duffle bags with items like toothbrushes, combs, toothpaste, games, flashlights, books, and more.
The troop collected donations through the end of March and delivered the filled bags to the State of Maine Department of Health and Human Services to be distributed to displaced children and teens across Maine.
