Daisy/Brownie Troop 43483 in Colorado Springs was excited to deliver Hometown Hero cookies to the teachers and support staff at Evans International Elementary School (EIES), where they attend and hold weekly meetings. This troop of 18 girls sold over 5,800 packages of cookies and collected enough donations to give 161 packages to the staff.
The girls chose the school staff because “they keep us safe,” “they are kind,” “they teach us,” and “they love us.” This decision followed the girls’ completion of the Brownie Quest Journey where they took action to address safety concerns in their school community.
The troop presented their cookie donation to an appreciative EIES staff on 3/17/17.
