The girls of Lafayette Girl Scout Troop #32790 just completed their Silver Award project by collecting enough donated items to create over 40 gift baskets that were raffled off at the annual International Refugee Committee (IRC) Feast in Oakland.
The troop's 11 Girl Scouts collected donations from family members, neighbors, classrooms and a variety of other techniques. They took their school holiday on November 11 to assemble and wrap the baskets, and on November 17 brought 40 baskets to the IRC event so that every family left with a gift basket.
The girls also were responsible for coordinating an art/craft table for children ages 2-20. They brought supplies for coloring, making friendship bracelets, and the assembly of turkey fridge magnets.
It was an amazing experience for the troop. The families and children looked so happy and thrilled. For the Girl Scouts, the experience was life changing and memorable.
