Cub Scout Pack 125, chartered by the Wellington Rotary Club, has been making a significant impact in the community through its charity initiative. In the third month of their efforts, the pack chose to support Grandma’s Place, a shelter facility for abused children. Their commitment and dedication resulted in the collection of hundreds of dollars in household items that will greatly benefit the children at the facility.
The pack’s focus was on gathering essential items that will contribute to the comfort and well-being of the children residing at Grandma’s Place. They collected items such as bottled water, paper plates and snacks, which are crucial for meeting their daily needs. These contributions will not only provide immediate assistance but also demonstrate care and support to those who have experienced abuse.
The efforts of Pack 125 in supporting Grandma’s Place exemplified the true spirit of community service. Their commitment to helping those in need sets an inspiring example for others to follow. Through their actions, the pack has not only made a significant impact on the lives of the children at Grandma’s Place but has also fostered a sense of empathy and kindness within their own group.
Cubmaster and scout leader Stephanie King has said, “more hands make light work,” and those same words brought her vision of a Year of Giving to life. It shows the scouts what an impactful difference they can make, no matter the task, when they work together.
When each scout brings an item that the charity needs, it reinforces the importance of small individual contributions.
