The 2nd grade Park View Elementary Brownie Troop is helping to gather supplies for the Community Cupboard at the Glen Ellyn Library. The Community Cupboard collects personal hygiene items, baby products (such as diapers and wipes), facial tissue, and deodorant for those who need it.

An informational flyer with the library's Wish List will be sent home next week in student folders. There will be a box at the school office to collect items until the end of Monday, February 10. Please donate to help our community! One donation can make a difference! Questions about this effort can be sent to emilyhenkels@gmail.com.

Thank you,

From the Girl Scouts Brownie Troop 56764
