Dear fellow Hanoverians:
Hanover Brownie Troop 80267 will be collecting new or gently used shoes and
boots for children ages infant to 4 years for the Mary-Martha Learning
Center in Hingham. The Mary-Martha Learning Center is a residential
educational program for young women and children who would otherwise be
homeless. The center focuses on women ages 18 to 24 years who have not
received their high school diploma and who have children ages newborn to 4
years. At Mary-Martha, they are provided with training and services for an
improved future.
Donations can be dropped off in boxes outside of either Brownie Leader’s
home: Lee Ann Arbia at 15 Waterford Drive or Ann Cox at 70 Buffum Road.
The shoes and boots will be collected from now until December 15th. The
girls will collect and sort the shoes and boots and present them to the
residents at the Mary-Martha Learning Center on December 18th. Brownie
Troop 80267 thanks you for your support with this community service project.
I don’t know about your kids, but when my kids were that age, they outgrew
their shoes LONGGGGGG before they were even close to being well-used or worn
out. So, clean out your closets and head over to Waterford Drive or Buffum
Road this week! For more information, please contact Ann Cox at
abcox@comcast.net .
