Used Scout Uniform Collection

Life Scout James Craven, of Boy Scout Troop 243 in Garden City, is working on a Scout uniform drive for his Eagle Scout Project. The uniforms are being collected to benefit the Scouts of Nyeri, Kenya, who do not have uniforms to wear. All uniforms collected will be cleaned by Troop 243 members and shipped to the Bishop of Nyeri, Kenya, who has agreed to distribute them to the Scouts in the town. Please donate any old Boy Scout, Girl Scout, and Cub Scout uniforms.

James and his fellow Scouts will be collecting the uniforms and donations at St. Joseph's Church on November 20th and Nov 21st after all masses. The church is located on Franklin Avenue between 4th and 5th Streets in Garden City. For pickup from your home, contact James at (516)-741-8532 or email uniformdrive@aol.com. Your generosity is greatly appreciated.
