It’s that time of year again when Girl Scout troops all across the country make their way to shopping centers and door-to-door selling their famous Girl Scout cookies.

This year, a local troop from the Tri-Cities area is not only selling cookies during their spare time, they’re throwing a baby shower, the very first of it’s kind in Northern California, for local military families. Great service project, right?

HAMO will be donating what we can to this effort, but even with this the troop is  running short on diapers and a few other essential items.

Here’s a letter from Troop 32271:

Donate In Person before Saturday March 5th

Fremont Fire Station #9
39609 Stevenson Place
Fremont, CA 94539

Note: Per the troop, you can ring the front door to donate items. If the team is on a service call, you can leave items at the front door.

Items the troop is still trying to collect before Saturday March 5th:

• Disposable diapers (sizes 1-3 especially)
• Baby wipes
• New cloth diapers
• Target & Babies R Us gift cards to purchase essential baby items

For questions or additional information, please contact Girl Scout Troop Leader, Adriana Cole, at (619) 944-0982.

And Check out Operation Shower too!
