Hi Everyone!
Due to what is going on at the current time I have "sort of" put my Eagle Scout project on the back burner. I was currently at the fundraising stage of my my project when the Coronavirus hit the US. Due to the Covid-19 I have put fundraising on hold. I do want to thank the people who have dontated to my project with cash donations and fabric.
That said, I wanted to do something in the meantime for the hospital. I suggested to my Boy Scout Troop that we make cards for the patients and staff at the hospital. Shortly after that suggestion I found out that patients could not receive anything from people outside the hospital. Next best thing....
My Boy Scout Troop is making cards for the staff at Hackettstown Hospital. I am reaching out to see if anyone in our community would like to create cards for the staff at Hackettstown Hospital for their hard work and dedication to fighting this virus.
I will begin collecting the cards on Tuesday, April 28 between 4:15p.m. to 8:00p.m. I will continue collecting until all cards are collected. My hope is to have all cards collected by next Sunday.
I will also be placing a plastic bin next to my mailbox if you would like to drop the card(s) off.
If you would like to make a card to thank the staff of Hackettstown Hiosital please reach out to me through my mom's page or leave a comment here and I will reach out to you.
The cards need to be placed in placed covers or Ziplock bags so the staff can wipe them down and help contain the virus.
Also, if you would like to make lawn signs for the hospital, I will be collecting them too. Just let me know.
Please share this post. I would love to be able to drop off a bunch of cards for all the all workers who are keeping our health system going.
Please get in touch with me via email, text or my mom's page, etc... if you made any cards (etc...), so I can get your address and pick up your cards.
Also, please contact me if you have any questions.
Thank you.
YIS,
Andrew
