Chelsea scouts donate time, supplies to Hearts Community Service

For the past few months, Boy Scout Pack 435 has been planning a celebration honoring the 100-year birthday for Boy Scouts of America.

Pack 435 decided to collect 100 different items that were on the wish list for Hearts Community Service. Nancy Harris, director for HCS, was presented with the collection.

"I was so amazed and pleased with the thoughtfulness and generosity from the scouts and their parents. Hearts received towels, toys, clothing, dishes and food, all of which will be given out to families and individuals who have lost everything and are starting all over again,” she said. “The need is great out there and these young scouts were so happy to help others. What a wonderful thing for the scouts to take on.”
