Last fall, Brownie Troop 27 and Junior Troop 145 made breakfast for the residents at Birmingham's First Light Shelter . The girls had a blast learning how to cook, and the women at the shelter really enjoyed the company. Several other local troops have participated in similar shelter activities. We'd like to start a repository for ideas for community service. If you've got a project to suggest please post a comment below.
Here's a great article that offers some other ideas for
Raising Kids Who Care. It includes lots of creative ideas for getting your girls involved and volunteering. Looking for volunteer opportunities in the Birmingham metro area? Check out Hands on Birmingham. They will hook you up!
